• Help our daughter Nicole Heal After a Horrific Halloween Accident

On the evening of 10/31, our eldest daughter was seriously injured in an accident that left her with deep wounds in her leg. Doctors placed 59 staples and 25 stitches. She already struggles with chronic leg issues that make healing slow and complicated, and we’re very worried about infection and long-term mobility problems.

She is currently without health insurance, and between emergency care, upcoming follow-up visits, wound care supplies, medications, and basic living costs (rent, food, utilities), she is in a situation she cannot recover from alone.

The doctors are unsure of the next steps, as they wait to see how she will begin to heal. I don’t know how long she will be unable to work.

We are humbly asking for help during one of the toughest times of our lives.  Anything you can give will make a meaningful difference in her recovery and our ability to get her back on her feet. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

We will post regular updates on recovery progress.
