Support for Aubree Young
Donation protected
On December 7, Aubree and her 6-month-old son, Kymani, were the victims of a tragic act of domestic violence.
Aubree survived but is facing a devastating new reality. Kymani’s injuries were not survivable. As she grieves the loss of her son, she’s also beginning to process her own prognosis, paraplegia - loss of leg function.
Grief on top of grief, including the complexity that the assailant was a beloved member of their family.
Some tragedies are beyond words and as much as we want to answer why, no amount of detail will satisfy the question. The family asks that the public respect their privacy as they navigate the complicated grief ahead of them.
At the same time, they are overwhelmed with gratitude at the support of first responders, neighbors, friends, and family.
Many have asked how you can help.
Along with medical and funeral expenses, almost everything in Aubree’s life - housing, occupation (hairdresser), and vehicle will need to transition to accommodate her paralysis.
In lieu of flowers, meals and other gifts the family greatly appreciates - they instead ask that you give towards Aubree’s future.
