Tragedy Strikes Family Unexpectedly
Donation protected
As some of you know, and as many of you don't, my parents Christina and Ben Stanley were in a motorcycle accident on Saturday, 4/14/18.
They were just enjoying a bike ride on the countryside of a small town when they approached an intersection. As they were going through, a woman missed a stop sign and t-boned them. They never saw it coming.
This intersection is notorious for fatal and of course non fatal accidents, and even though the town has tried and tried to get the department of transportation to do something about it, they have done nothing. Currently, a man by the name of Will Poteat has started a petition on change.org to get a light or something at this intersection to potentially lessen or stop accidents here. Link will be at bottom of this fundraiser.
My mom was rushed to Carolina's Healthcare System in Charlotte where she suffered from a shattered leg which required her to get titanium rods installed both in the femur and the tibia, a fractured mandible, loss of teeth, and some other small abrasions.
My dad was life flighted to Wake Forest Baptist Medical Center where he sits in the Intensive Care suffering from head trauma and multiple breaks and fractures that will require surgery. Respectfully, until he makes improvements, that is all im going to disclose at this time.
This has hit my family hard, and me, only being 20, I can barely do anything to help. The medical costs are crazy high, my parents are obviously going to be out of work for a long time.. We need all of the help we can get. Even if you can't help, please please please share.
Thank you.
