Medical Expenses from Bear Attack

Donation protected
My name is Dawn Martin and my husband Steve and I were camping this past weekend when I was attacked and mauled by a Black Bear.The attack was unprovoked and occurred while I was sleeping. My husband was able to beat the bear off of me but I sustained extensive injuries from his attack. Both of my arms were mauled and my scalp was ripped from my head. I have severe nerve damage to my left arm and no use of it which is my dominant arm and limited use of my right arm. I was airlifted to Banner university medical center in Tucson for treatment and multiple surgeries. I will also need physical therapy in the future. I do not anticipate being able to return to work. Steve and I are humbled and are asking for any assistance you may be able to give to help pay these medical expenses that are encouraging. We appreciate any assistance that anyone is willing to give and thank you very much for all your thoughts and prayers and kind words during this difficult time.
