Hi, One week ago today our student was hit on his way to school. We are starting a fund for his family with their permission. Below is a statement from his mother.

"Today marks one week since my son, Naijah was hit off his bike on his way to school. I know many people in the school and the community have been wondering how he is. Although I can not show the pictures, they are graphic, I can update you on his injuries and condition. He has undergone 2 surgeries. He broke his femur and had a rod placed in his left leg. His 2nd surgery, a metal plate was put in place to secure his fractured right hip, and he had a repair for a lacerated liver. His left kneecap was dislodged. He has multiple cuts and countless stitches. I am honestly surprised, overwhelmed, and grateful for the tremendous outpouring of love. I want to thank everyone for their prayers, well wishes, and support."

Naijah is in for a long recovery.

He will have to learn to walk again without assistance and will be out of school for a while. Mom is driving back and forth from PSL to WPB daily and still navigating the kids at home and work.

Naijah will spend his 15th birthday in therapy. It would be the greatest gift if he was able to come home with much-needed medical supplies, equipment, and comfort.

Thank you,

The Carby Family
