Tabitha Wells Fund

Donation protected
Tabitha Wells was critically injured in a severe car accident on Friday, May 6, 2016. It is still unclear what happened, but we believe the other driver ran a stop sign. Tabitha was hit with such force it shot her truck over 200 feet from the point of impact. She was air-lifted to Bronson Hospital in Kalamazoo, where she is struggling to recover in critical condition. She has several broken ribs, a punctured lung, a broken pelvis, and broken bones in her face with brain trauma. She has a tube and a camera in her skull to monitor the pressure in her head.  Doctors say the recovery is going to be long and arduous, and she may not  be able to walk for the next 8-10 months. We are optimistic, but we wont know the extent of the brain damage, if any, until she wakes up. The doctors put her into a medically-induced coma to keep her as comfortable and safe as possible.

     Tabitha and her fiance Brian own a small tree service company. Successful operation requires both of them to be there at all times. Due to this tragedy, the business  and household will struggle. Tabitha is a devoted mother of a young girl (Kyleigh) who is devastated by this tragedy, occuring just days before Mother's Day. Imagine seeing your battered mother in a hospital bed on Mother's Day with tubes all over her body and machines beeping her life status. Now imagine you are 11 years old. They are also raising a 15 yr old girl (Brittany) a 10 yr old boy (Zeke) and a 5 yr old boy (Peyton), who are Tabitha's stepchildren. The family moral support has been amazing and they are grateful to all who have shown their love and concern.

     There will be many bills and costs for this family for the next year. Medically, Tabitha will need extensive recovery extending beyond hospital care. This road will be long and tiresome for Tabitha and her family.     Any donations will be extremely appreciated and definitely needed.

     Thank you for all of your support. God will protect and bless you for your kindness. And I know God is also protecting Tabitha. Known to most as "Tabby" and known to many as mother, sister, daughter, granddaughter, aunt, cousin, and friend. Please help this family in their time of need.
