Medical Expenses for Vinetta Sanchez
Donation protected
I am La’trese Pearsall, the older sister and health care proxy for Vinetta Sanchez.
You may be aware of the events or have even seen the video of the woman hit and run over by a car April 1, 2023, on Bailey Ave in Buffalo, NY.
Nothing will ever be the same. Our lives, especially my sister’s life, changed forever!!! After being hit, run over, and dragged across the street. Vinetta was trapped under the rear tire of the car. But God sent an angel who jacked the car up to get it off her until emergency personnel arrived.
Vinetta suffered extensive injuries; including a broken femur, broken tibia, 9 broken ribs, crushed pelvis, spinal fractures, 2 collapsed lungs, lacerations to her spleen and liver and the skin literally ripped from her body. She has already undergone numerous surgeries and will have more to come along with numerous skin grafts. Once she is out of the Trauma Intensive Care Unit she will remain in the hospital and undergo extensive physical therapy to help her regain mobility. From there she will be moved to a rehabilitation facility until she is strong enough to be released into the care of a family member. She has a long road to recovery.
Her medical insurance is currently paying for the care she is receiving, but there are always gaps that are not covered.
Once Vinetta is released, she will need an in-home aid to assist with her everyday needs. It is our prayer that Vinetta will receive the exceptional care that she deserves and will one day be close to being back to herself: a strong independent woman. She will not only need help with medical bills but household bills as well. We are asking that the city of good neighbors come together and help someone who cannot at this time help herself, through no fault of her own.
