Please help Isaiah with his long road of recovery

Friday, November 11th Isaiah was involved in a road rage shooting in Renton, WA and was sent to Harborview Medical Center with life-threatening injuries.
The driver of a blue Mustang shot toward the family car in an altercation and shot Isaiah in the mouth and upper chest.
After opening fire, the driver of the blue Mustang sped off, and police are still searching for the vehicle.
Isaiah was taken to a hospital Friday, November 11th, with life-threatening injuries and is recovering in the intensive care unit.
They did emergency surgery on Friday, November 11th, at 8:30 pm to remove the bullet in his chest and mouth.
The surgeons said the surgery went amazingly. They got the bullet out of his chest and from the back of his neck! They did not have to wire his jaw shut as they thought, but he will have a plate in his jaw for about three months. He will also have a feeding tube for about 2-3 weeks. He did so amazingly. After surgery, there was no swelling; they have been working on waking him up from a medical coma since 8 am November 12th.
*Update at 10:30 am on November 12th; he is breathing on his own*
He is alive and well!! It is incredible what Isaiah has gone through; he seems to be in good spirits. Thank you all for the support and love!
His parents are not worried about bills at this moment. The only thing on their mind is that their baby boy is safe and should fully recover!
I want to try and raise money for them through this long recovery. They will be taking time off work to help care for Isaiah.
We all know medical bills are expensive, and with the holidays approaching and this inflation, things will be tight and stressful. So, anything will help!
*** Update Isaiah's is on the road to recovery, and he continues to improve with flying colors. We could not be Happier! The doctors say he is looking great, better than they could imagine for someone who was shot in the mouth and chest. His breathing tube was taken out yesterday and today will hopefully be his last day in ICU! They have checked his vocal cords, and they look great. He is also talking on his own now! He is still on a feeding tube, but once that is taken out he will finally be able to return home!
Isaiah still has a long recovery, but we are very grateful for everyone's love and support.
We are amazed at how much you all care and how much you all have contributed to help our family at this difficult time. Through all the evil in this world, it is nice to know there is still kindness and love out there! ***
All funds will be sent to my cousin Isaiah’s mother Shakira.
