Help Move Mountains for Chris

Donation protected
My name is Chris Walls. I live and work in Vail, Colorado. Last month, I was involved in a traumatic accident that almost took my life!While skiing at Vail Mountain Resort, I went off an unexpected ledge and hit head first into a large group of trees. The impact from the collision left me unconscious and stranded alone, without a phone, in the forest. After regaining consciousness, I could tell that I was not okay. I looked down at the snow and wondered why I could only see the color red on the ground. Blood was pouring out of my forehead! I couldn’t move my arms without feeling excruciating pain, but I had to find help.I climbed out of the forest to the top of the ledge I flew off of, and screamed for help, but I was to weak to make any noise loud enough for someone to hear.Thirty minutes later, ski patrol found me laying on the ledge. They transported me to Vail Hospital and after receiving 2 CAT scans, 2 MRI’s and 2 X-Rays, I was diagnosed with 4 broken ribs, a broken nose and a serious concussion.Surgery lasted for three hours, and after receiving 83 stitches in my forehead, I was in one piece again. Then I got my medical bill.Today I am asking for your help. In total, I owe Vail Hospital $18,705.43 for my medical expenses. This excruciating amount of debt has put my life on pause at the worst time. Because of it, I am unable to afford the cost of living. I haven’t been able to work the same amount of hours at my job or preform at the level I once was able to. I’ve had to put my education to the side because I cannot afford the cost of tuition. I’m currently without a car and I don’t have enough money every month for rent. Help me move Move Mountains! “For I know the plans I have for you, says the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” Jeremiah 29:11. I know God has an amazing plan for my life, and I need your help and continued prayers, to get my life resumed! Thank you to everyone who took the time to read my story!
