Pearson Recovery Fund

This is being started on behalf of a wonderful family that has had something very tragic happen to them. Keenan Pearson was traveling home from work via Parleys Canyon Wednesday night around 11:45pm when he saw a vehicle stopped on the side of the freeway with their hazards on. Being the warm, kind-hearted soul that he is, he pulled off to see if assistance was needed. On his way back to his car, another driver lost control of their vehichle and collided with Keenan. 

Somehow Keenan survived the impact, but not in one piece. He is currently in a medically induced coma for the next few days until the doctors are finished with the required surgeries. So far he has lost his right leg below the knee and doctors are now trying to save the other leg. We are extremely lucky he is alive and did not receive any apparent head injuries. 

We are still waiting to here back from the police department regarding the accident. 

As of now, this family of 4 is without any income. Keenan was the head and man of the house who was the soul provider for his loving wife (my sister and best friend) and two small children who are, thankfully, not old enough to understand what has happened to their father. His wife is being as strong as she can be in this kind of situation. Insurance will only cover so much, but the real worry is how are they going to pay the bills for the next year or so when their only source of income is now out of commission? I have made a high estimate of their monthly expenses (the mortgage, diapers, food, wheelchair access to the house, etc..) and have concluded the total amount they need to help them worry about one less thing for the next year while Keenan is recovering.

They are too proud to ask for help. But I'm not. Any amount helps. Either in a donation or prayers, this little family appreciates all the love they can recieve.
