Support Cassie's Major Car Accident Recovery Fund

Cassandra Post flew out to Arkansas with her boyfriend, Dustin Boyd, to be with his family for Christmas.

For the past year, they had been planning a family vacation to Ireland with Dustin's mom, brother, and sister-in-law. Dustin's mom, Linda, had raised her two sons as a single mother, so the three of them never got the opportunity to take a family vacation together. They were all excited to depart for Ireland on December 26, 2024.

However, on the night of December 22, 2024, Linda and Cassie were driving down the highway to go meet with Dustin and his brother. Coming along the opposite side of the highway, a vehicle clipped another vehicle while merging, causing one of the drivers to lose control. They crossed the meridian and hit the car Linda was driving with Cassie in the passenger seat head-on at about 60-65 mph. Cassie briefly lost consciousness until the first responders arrived.

Cassie and Linda were rushed to the nearest hospital. Both were in shock and in tremendous pain. Cassie's scans showed air in the abdomen and she went into exploratory bowel surgery about midnight that night.

Cassie's 2 1/2 hour exploratory surgery had a section of her bowel removed and a colostomy bag put in. Her xrays showed that she had broke both her wrists and her right tibea. She is still awaiting orthopedic surgery on all the breaks. She has been battling high blood pressure and sleeps most of the time as a result of the medication.

Her phone was also broken in the accident and though it has been replaced she is unable to use it in her current condition.

We are thankful and lucky that Cassie and Linda are both alive and recovering as the other driver in the collision did not survive.

We are looking for financial assistance for the next few months to help with rent, utilities, and other bills as she recuperates. She will remain in Arkansas, with Dustin by her side, for the foreseeable future until she is discharged and cleared for travel so they can return home.

We will be updating her condition here on GoFundMe as her recovery progresses.
