Help Shane get an amazing prosthetic

Donation protected
On August 5th my sweet nephew Shane Johns was involved in a hit and run accident. He’s currently in the ICU at Vanderbilt with extensive and life changing injuries. Please pray for him and our family, especially my mom, Melodye Evans. Shane looks so much like my sister, his mom, that it brings back the painful memories of when she was in the ICU and left us for the heavenly realm. Shane had his third and hopefully final surgery on August 16th which so far has been a success. 
We are still hopeful someone will turn the person in that hit him as his life will never be the same. Unfortunately the police aren’t searching for the woman who hit him and have stated they will only get aggressive with finding her if Shane becomes a fatality.  Shane’s medical insurance will cover the hospital stay but does not cover acute rehab or any type of prosthetic. I’ve talked with a few prosthetic companies and they all seem to start at a cost of 20k for a prosthetic that is only for aesthetics and up to 300k for a bioelectric prosthetic.  
We are so thankful for the support and prayers of everyone and appreciate all of the continued prayers.
