Help Maureen Heal and Stay Afloat Financially.

Hey Y’all,

We are starting this GoFundMe for our dear friend Maureen. Due to this horrific car accident she no longer has a job or medical insurance. (In the following paragraph is details of the accident.) She has already had 3 major surgeries on her extremities and is having another tomorrow, and most likely many more in the future. Praise God she was moved over the weekend from Nero Trauma ICU to Med/Surg after being intubated and in a medical induced coma after being life flighted to Legacy Hospital. She is now awake and speaking, in extreme pain, but still has her sense of humor… she complains the hospital water and the mac’n’cheese is garbage - so if you want to send her bottled water and instant Kraft mac that would be great, lol. But more importantly we don’t want her to have to worry about finances while she is fighting to take back her life. So please if you are able to contribute anything to her healing she would be most grateful.

Details from the accident:

“Three injured, one critically, in SUV-semi crash that shut Hwy. 22E for 7 hours…

DETROIT, Ore. (KTVZ) – Three people were injured, one critically, in a collision of an SUV and a UPS semi-truck hauling double-trailers on Highway 22E west of Detroit Sunday afternoon that closed the highway for seven hours, Oregon State Police reported.

Troopers said Maureen Connealy, 63, of Salem, was heading west in a Chevy Equinox near milepost 43, eight miles west of Detroit, when she crossed the center line and struck an oncoming Freightliner driven by a 43-year-old Vancouver, Washington man.

The truck jackknifed into the westbound lane and collided with a Honda Odyssey van driven by Raymond Frankel, 79, of Salem.

Connealy was flown by Life Flight helicopter to an area hospital with critical injuries and Frankel was taken by Life Flight with serious injuries, OSP said. Frankel’s passenger was taken by ambulance with minor injuries and the truck driver was uninjured.

OSP was assisted by the Gates, Detroit and Lyons fire departments, the Marion County Sheriff’s Office and ODOT.”

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,

Maureen and her family, Jordan, Crystal, and all who treasure her!
