Help Melanie Winkler after Head On Collision

Support Melanie Winkler

Melanie was in a head on collision on Sunday, April 2nd. She was entrapped in the vehicle and critically wounded. After 8 hours, the hospital informed us that she had suffered from a severe heart contusion, collapsed right lung (full of blood clots), both arms broken, left femur/knee shattered, right femur broken.

She has had 7 surgeries to date. As of April 8th, she has started to experience the beginning of PTSD. She will not be able to bare weight on her legs or arms for the next ten weeks, and then she will be able to start putting weight on one leg.

We want to thank everyone’s prayers, thoughts, and time you have spent checking in. Melanie feels it and is so thankful.

We have surrounded her as a family to provide all the hands on care we can. Her road to recovery is long and part of that uphill battle is adjusting to what her new life will be like. As you guys know, life goes on even when you’re stuck in bed. We are starting this GoFundMe to help her while she recovers and can make ends meet without having that added stress. We ask that if you can not donate - please send cards and share this!!
