Support for my family after tragic accident on 134 freeway
Donation protected
I'm reaching out during a devastating time for my family. On their way to the flea market to sell clothes, my mom (Florencia) and
15-year-old sister (Lizbeth) were involved in a terrible head-on collision caused by a suicidal wrong-way driver. Both of them have suffered severe injuries and face a long road to recovery.
My mom is dealing with:
* Fractured ribs
* A fractured nose
* A sprained ankle
* Back pain and severe headaches
* Difficulty urinating, requiring a catheter
* Concussion
My 15-year-old sister's injuries are even more serious and too graphic to post:
* Bleeding in her head
* A fractured femur
* Fractured legs
She is undergoing surgery today, but
right now, she's barely responsive. I haven't been able to speak to her, and it breaks my heart not knowing what's ahead for her. My mom, who is the main provider for our family, will be out of work in the meantime. On top of that, my dad will need to take time off from work to care for her until she can fully recover. We're now facing medical bills, lost income, recovering mother.
I'm asking for your help-whether it's a donation or simply sharing this fundraiser. If you can't donate, please keep my family in your thoughts and prayers. Your support means the world to us, and we're holding onto hope that my little sister will pull through.
Thank you for anything you can give, even if it's just your positive energy.
With love
Ricardo, Florencia, Mayra, Silver, & Lizbeth
