“Cervical fracture — Urgent surgery and rehab needed”

Donation protected

Hello, my name is Alex Dominguez, and I want to share what happened to me so you can understand why I need your support.

On August 10, I suffered an accident at a water park. After going down a slide, I landed in a way that fractured my C6 and C7 vertebrae. I lost strength and sensation in my body and had to be rescued from the water. It was one of the scariest moments of my life.

I am now in the hospital, and although I can move my arms and legs, the pain is very strong. The doctors told me I need surgery to stabilize my spine with support at C5. After that, I will face months of therapy and rehabilitation.

Because of the accident, I will not be able to work during this entire time. In addition, my sister has reduced her work hours to take care of me, since I need a lot of attention and the hospital is very far from our home. This has made my family’s financial situation even more difficult.

That is why I humbly ask for your help to cover medical expenses, treatment, medications, and transportation.

Any donation, no matter how small, will be a huge help in allowing me to move forward. I also ask you to please share my story with your friends and on social media.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for taking the time to read my story and for your support in this difficult moment.

With hope,
Alex Dominguez
