My cousin Jessica’s 13 year old son Zeke.

On January 17th my cousins son Zeke Alaimo was struck by a pickup truck while crossing the street to check the mail.  He has sustained traumatic upper body and facial injuries.  He was airlifted to Greenville ECU trauma Hospital and is on the pediatric ICU floor.   He has a fractured skull, shattered jaw, he is intubated and will need several surgeries. Today is a big one.  They are going in to repair his shattered jaw. They will wire it shut and they will place a trach in his throat.  He needs the trach because he is not breathing independently.   We are asking for prayers mostly, but we are also looking for donations to cover the cost of the life flight (not covered under insurances) and all uncovered medical bills.  Zeke has a long road to recovery, please pray for him and his family. Zeke is a very strong young man and it’s a miracle he survived this tragic accident.  Zeke’s mom is a single mother and is raising him along with his younger twin sisters.. God Bless you all for your prayers and donation. I will update his progress as I get information from the family.   All donations will go towards his medical expenses and to help him get him back to normal.  An energetic, happy, fun loving, 8th grader who loves playing with his sisters, friends, sports.
