Support Morgan's Recovery from Assault
Donation protected
My name is Morgan, I’m 27 years old. On Friday September 13th around 10pm I was leaving downtown Detroit to meet at a friend’s house I took an Uber, when getting out I realized I was dropped just a block or two from my friends house so I started to walk since my Uber had pulled off by that time. Walking down the sidewalk I noticed a man on a bicycle on the same side of the sidewalk as me. Before he was about to pass me he gets off his bike, grabs me by my neck and throws me to the ground where he repeatedly punched me in the face. Not a word was shared. When he got up and ran away I was able to find my phone and start running where an ambulance picked me up. I was hospitalized for the night where I received stitches in my left eye and inside of my mouth and lips. CT scans were done and many other test due to my injuries to ensure I did not have any broken bones. I am very thankful to walk away from this without even a fracture. I am currently asking for help with medical bills since I am completely self pay. I have missed work, have up coming appointments to make sure my vision is not damaged and therapy I need to start. This event that took all of maybe 20 seconds has completely altered and affected my life. Currently this man is still roaming the streets and I pray to god this doesn’t happen to another women or something worse. Anything helps here and I am completely grateful for even the smallest amount. For the people that have reached out and sent flowers/ small gifts thank you so much as I realize at this time I need all the support I can get.
with much love,
Morgan.
