<div>Help Jake Heal and Keep His family Afloat After Tragic Accident
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On what began as a normal drive to work, their lives changed forever.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My brother-in-law Jake was involved in a devastating head on collision and first responders had to fight to extricate him from the vehicle.
</div>
<div>The crash was horrific. Jake has sustained severe injuries including:
</div>
<div>• A Brain bleed
</div>
<div>• 4 Broken ribs
</div>
<div>• Heart damage
</div>
<div>• A Fractured sternum
</div>
<div>• A Fractured neck
</div>
<div>• Multiple broken bones in His dominant hand and wrist
</div>
<div>• Severe Bruising, internal Injuries, and unimaginable pain -and an uncertain road to recovery ahead. Doctors say he will be unable to return to work for months as he fights to heal, and that's IF there are no complications.
</div>
<div><br />

<div>A Family Already Fighting For Their Lives
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Just a few months ago, my sister and Jake welcomed twin baby Girls - born FOUR months early. These tiny Miracles spent over 4 months in the NICU fighting for their lives, connected to tubes and machines that most adults would struggle to endure. My sister hasn't been able to return to work because the girls need constant care, medical follow-ups, and therapy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Now she is facing something no mother or wife should have to- caring for two medically fragile babies, had a severely injured husband at the same time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>A Family Drowning, But Too Proud to Ask For Help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Jake is the Sole Provider for his family. Before the accident, he was already working himself to exhaustion, trying desperately to catch up on bills left from NICU stays, medical debt, and basic living expenses. They were already behind . Now with him hospitalized and no income coming in, this tragic accident has brought them to the breaking point.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>They are drowning. Rent, utilities, diapers, formula, gas, medical bills and now hospital expenses- they are facing a mountain no family can climb alone.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Why We're Asking for Help
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are asking for funds to help this young family survive the coming months while Jake recovers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>✅️ Rent and basic living expenses
</div>
<div>✅️ Diapers, formula and baby supplies
</div>
<div>✅️ Gas for Hospital trips and doctor appointments
</div>
<div>✅️ Medical bills and therapy
</div>
<div>✅️ Support while Jake is out of work
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Anything helps - even $5 brings them one step closer to stability. If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser means just as much.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This family has been through storm after storm - but they are good people who would give the shirt off their back to help someone else. Now they need us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please help Jake heal. Please help keep this family together.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>From the bottom of our hearts thank you
</div>
