Help Zachary in Car Crash Recovery
Donation protected
Zachary Caban, a 28-year-old son, brother, and boyfriend, recently moved from his native New York to Naples, Florida, where he successfully manages a Miller's Ale House.
On June 3, 2021, just after 6 pm, he was involved in a serious four-car motor vehicle crash. While waiting at a traffic light, the driver of a vehicle failed to stop and collided into the rear end of Zachary's vehicle, forcing him into the car ahead of him.
Two strangers provided assistance at the scene; while waiting at least 20 minutes for professionals to arrive. Zachary was eventually airlifted to the nearest Level II Trauma Center, 40 minutes away, in critical condition.
As of now, he remains in critical but stable condition. Testing shows he has sustained:
-A diffuse axonal injury (DAI) on both sides of the brain; which has the potential to impact autonomic functions, senses, and vision
-Two frontal lobe brain bleeds
-Fracture of the occipital condyle
-Seven non-displaced rib fractures on the right side
-A spinal fracture at T4
The last few days have consisted of rest, though we have witnessed limb movement, grabbing, grunting, eye-opening, and thumbs-up on occasion and when demanded.
At this time, the funds raised by this page will go towards Zachary's three current needs:
-Hospital and medical expenses throughout his recovery, which could last up to two years
-Relocation of his immediate out-of-state family; so they can be with him
-Lost wages needed to pay rent and other bills
Donations and prayers will be greatly appreciated-please consider sharing with others. Thank you.
