Stand with Rontavia: Bus Stop Accident

Hi, I ironically met Rontavia through a post on the Nextdoor app- she was helping her friend get items to become a foster mom. Little did she know she would be the one needing the help.

Rontavia Turner was doing something she does nearly every day - boarding the bus home from work, when suddenly the ground opened up beneath her. She was stuck all the way up to her mid-thigh.

Needless to say, this was out of her control, but she’s the one who has to suffer financially.

After a trip to the ER, multiple doctors visits, an MRI, and now physical therapy, Rontavia is left with a mountain of medical bills, and has trouble getting around independently. She lives alone and is visually impaired. She's on unpaid leave from her job at a daycare.

She hired a lawyer and plans to take legal action against Baltimore County. Now, she's hoping for a Christmas miracle.
