Joey and Daniel Muhs accident fund

Donation protected

Hello dear friends, we are Sean and Holly Gillespie. We are here to raise money to help the Muhs family pay for Memorial, Funeral and Medical expenses.
 Tragicly on July 30 of this year, Daniel Muhs (father) and his sweet little boy Joey, age 10 were in a horrific and tragic motorcycle sidecar accident. Pore little Joey was fatally injured and died at the scene dispite all that Holly and I could do for him. Thankfuly Holly was able to resuscitate Daniel as he lay upside down along a treeline on an embankment after being ejected from what remained of his motorcycle. Daniel has suffered numerous injuries. Compound fracture of his right femur just above the knee, both right tibia and fibia are fractured, and his L1 in his back is fractured. Including multiple lacerations. Daniel was air lifted to Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton, Ohio. And has undergone several surgeries to repair the damage. He is suffering pain both physically and emotionally trying to cope with the death of his only child. Once medically stable enough, Daniel will be transported the 275 miles back to his home town of Olney, Illinois.  
 Funds will be used to help pay for Joeys funeral and memorial expenses. We would very much also like to see an out poring of support from the Ural comunity, friends and the hometown comunity in loving memory of this beautiful and sweet little boy who has passed away much to early. Joey touched the heart of everyone he met. The world is truly a darker place without his shining happieness.
 The remaining funds will go to help pay Daniel's emergency air lift, hospital stay, extensive medical and surgery bills, wound care supplies and medical devices. As well as hopefully assist in the families daily house hold expenses.  Daniel has a long road of recovery and he surely needs our help as friends. Holly and I are commited to this cause. We had become friends to Joey and Daniel. We witnessed this tragic accident, and we provided emergency medical care. Holly continued assisting the local fire and rescue with Daniels care, while I remained with Joey after he had passed away. To see you folks donate and show your support will help all of us cope with such a tragedy. I know that the goal is set high however even the smallest amount will be appreciated. Even if you are unable to donate please send a kind message for the Muhs family to show your support.
 Thank you for taking your time to read this GoFundMe request.

Sincerely
Sean
