Kirubel & Surafel Mesfin- Medical Assistance
Donation protected
Yesterday, March 28th 2022, two of my little cousins were struck by a large water truck on their way to school at 7:45AM in Logan, Utah. Both brothers Kirubel, 18, and Surafel Mesfin, 14, were life-flighted to two different hospitals.
Kirubel sustained the worst injuries. Within the span of 4 hours, he underwent multiple emergency brain and heart surgeries. While those have been successful. Currently, he still has more procedures to repair his broken arms, wrists, hips and spine. Surafel is in a stable condition, but similar to Kirubel, he still has a long road to recovery ahead of him.
Kirubel is a senior at Logan High School (LHS). He is passionate about soccer and academics and is set to graduate this May with big dreams of attending college after. Surafel is a sophomore at LHS, also passionate about his studies and his involvement in student government.
We have created this campaign to help ease the financial burden that comes with such a traumatic event. Their father has recently overcome a severe cancer diagnosis and these unexpected medical expenses are likely to hurt the family even further. All funding will be directly given to the family in order to alleviate the medical costs and other related economic stressors during this time.
We believe it’s a miracle that the two have survived and know that what the family needs most is our community coming together to show them our love and support. Thank you for all your thoughts and prayers.
