Accident Recovery Expenses
Donation protected
On Oct 25th I was driving my Harley to the storage location I arranged for the winter. I was pulling off the road to make an adjustment, for safety reasons, when the center stand caught the edge of the road and the dirt. This caused me to loose control of the bike, in a ditch, which through me off, flying approx 7 feet into a tree.
My injuries included; shattered right wrist, neck injury almost causing peralysis, central spine brusing causing peralysis in my hands, lots of road rash, a very sore right collar from hitting the tree, much injury to my face and, last but certenly not least, a brain bleed.
While in the hospital, I had neck surgery and other ICU care. Tuesday, Nov 8th, I was transferred to the Craig Rehabilitation facility in Englewood CO, #1 in the nation, where they specialize in spinal and brain bleed recovery. My stay here will be between 2-3 months depending on how well I can recover with the Physical Therapy. So far, I have had surgery on my right wrist but both hands are still useless from the spinal injury. Attending therapy, I can now sit up in bed and in a special wheel chair. Although I can stand, walking is still a challenge but I know God will grant me that soon.
My plight for requesting financial assistance is this. We all know insurance only covers so much. Due to unfortunate timing, my new job's Long Term Disability coverage will NOT fully cover my entire stay here. Because of these factors, coupled with loss of income, I, Carolyn, and Kenyon really need your prayers. However, during your prayers for myself and family, please allow God to speak to you for financial help if at all possible.
I greatly apprecaite your prayers and any financial help you may be able to provide. Please dont' call my cell phone since I can't answer it although my nurses can help me check my text messages. If you happen to come while I am in therapy (East Bldg rm 234A), they will bring you to me to help cheer me on with my struggles.
