Jacob's Medical Fund

Donation protected
On September 16, 2016

Jacob Gurganus was involved in a terrible motor vehicle accident. The vehicle he was in suffered a catastrophic left front tire failure that caused the truck veer into the direct path of another vehicle. The two vehicles collided head on.  Jacob is stable but in critial condition and has many surgeries to come.  So far he has had a neck surgery where they removed his C6 and a temporary plate in his jaw.  He is scheduled for a tracheostomy and feeding tube  on Thursday and another surgery on his jaw on Friday.  His jaw  will have to be wired shut for about 6 weeks .  He has to have another surgery on his neck as well as his collar bone will need plates and screws and surgery on his arm.  Other surgeries are expected but these will be the first of many.  I will update as I can.


I started the fundraising page on behalf of Jacob and his family. I have no idea what the medical expenses will be for Jacob's recovery and care, not to mention the emotional trauma of enduring such a horrific crash. The initial expenses I anticipate are travel costs for his parents to  be with him, as well as potential loss of work as a result of this incident, and medical costs will follow.

I've chosen an arbitrary amount as the goal because it is required in order to create a fundraising page, but any amount at all is hugely appreciated.



We are standing and believing on God's word.

Isaiah 53:5 
But He was pierced because of our transgressions, crushed because of our iniquities; ... The punishment that brought our peace was on him; and by his stripes we are healed. ...


Isaiah 41:10  

So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.

Please keep Jacob and his family  in your prayers, for physical and emotional healing, and join us in thanking God for protecting his life!
