Single recovering mom of 3 in need

Araya (Eldest child): On October 4, 2014, my mom was in an severe accident. She was stopped at a 4-way stop sign heading home from work to help me get ready for my junior year homecoming & while proceeding a 77 year-old lady ran her stop sign at 60 mph & rammed into the drivers side door. Her work car rolled 100 ft down the road. I had talked to her 5 minutes before the accident. We were going to meet at home for her to do my make-up for the dance.  In the middle of the dance I stepped out to call my mom & I began to grow worried as she was still not answering her phone. Before I went to bed I called my Grandma to see what was going on. She had told me all that happened & my mom was in an ambulance heading to get a surgey to try to save her life. I was shocked. Accidents are common but who ever thinks it's going to happen to them. Through out the months we stay with my grandparents & visited my mom every weekend in the hospital. She now is much better than where she started but she still has ways to go. She went through many therapies & financially we are struggling. It's hard to adjust to not being able to live comfortably like we had before. The accident had taken a toll on every part of our lives. We can no longer afford many things we used to take advantage of because the accident stripped us of most of our money plus added on many finacial problems for us. To take care of herself & her 3 kids on little to no money is stressful, upsetting, and hurtful to her. You can see she feels as if she failed us. We would use the donations to support the family & afford the day to day essentials we need to get by. We would be so thankful for the donations because we would feel like a stable, healthy family again which is so important to us & is something we have long been missing.
