Help support Shain and family after Accident

Donation protected

My husband, Shain Benton, was on his way to work, driving a scooter like he does every day, and was struck by an SUV at 45 mph, and thrown across the intersection into the opposite side. He is in ICU with a broken femur and both ulna and radius with a compound fracture. He also has bleeding on the brain. He also has 4 broken ribs. His left knee sustained some injury too, but nothing broken. He also has 3 broken ribs.


He was working over 80 hours every 2 weeks and now is out of work until further notice. I'm the only one there for him in the hospital every day and have to get an Uber to go back and forth to my house to take care of kids and dog. It's become quite pricey given that he's out of work. This has taken quite a toll on our family, both emotionally and mentally, but we're hanging on. He has always been our backbone, our rock, and the centerpiece of our family. I will also be selling jewelry soon for donations too. Will keep updated.

Any funds donated will be used to help with:

**$1720/month for bills

**$600/month for groceries

**$200/week for Uber to go back and forth between home and hospital

**money towards medical equipment, prescriptions, or any medical bills that insurance doesn't cover.

We are thankful that he is alive but this is emotionally taking a toll on our family. We appreciate any donations and support. Your donations will get us through the next few months until we can get things rolling and back on our feet.
