16-Year-Old Undergoing Jaw Surgery

Hi friends and family,

I am writing this with a heavy heart and a humble request for your assistance. My 16-year-old sister recently experienced an accident that has left her in need of extensive medical care and support. Insurance only covers a portion of the costs, so this GoFundMe campaign is to help cover the remaining medical expenses my mom will be facing during my sister's recovery journey.

On September 4th Aisha fainted with no warning, and fell face-first onto tiled floor, fracturing her jaw in three places. The impact also caused severe damage to her teeth, resulting in several chips, cracks, and some teeth being lost.

To date, she has undergone a surgical procedure that required the insertion of two titanium plates to repair her fractured chin. Her mouth has been wired shut to facilitate healing, which means she will endure a strictly liquid diet for the next six weeks. There are multiple tests being done in hopes to find the cause of her passing out. After this, she will require extensive dental work, including dental implants, braces, crowns, and potentially more that we are currently unaware of until her wires are removed.

The financial burden of this ordeal is substantial, and while my mom is not one to ask for help, I recognize that the expenses involved are far beyond what we can manage on our own. The emotional strain of seeing Aisha like this has been hard to say the least, so I am seeking your support to help alleviate the additional financial strain that this accident has placed on my mom.

My sister is my best friend, full of life and talent. She is deeply involved in her high school's Theater, Band, Orchestra, and Color Guard. She thrives on performing for crowds, whether it's on the school stage, football field, or with our family. This accident has disrupted her life in ways we can hardly imagine, and we are committed to supporting her every step of the way.

The funds raised will be used to cover the following expenses:

Hospital Stay: Four nights in the hospital for initial treatment and monitoring.

Surgery: The surgical procedure to repair her fractured jaw and input surgical braces.

Anesthesia: Used during both the initial surgery and the removal of surgical braces.

Medications: Necessary for her pain management and overall recovery.

Braces, dental implants, crowns: Orthodontic treatment to restore her damaged teeth.

Other Medical-Related Costs: Miscellaneous expenses related to her treatment and recovery.

We know times are tough for everyone, and any contribution, no matter how big or small, will be immensely appreciated. Your generosity will directly impact my sister's journey toward healing and help alleviate the financial burden on my mom during this challenging time.

Every donation is greatly appreciated and if you are unable to donate, sharing this page on socials will be just as helpful.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, love, and support.

With gratitude,

Liana
