Hello, on 3-9-2023 a tragic vehicle accident occurred. Dakota , a passenger in a truck was injured, and had to be medevaced to a hospital where he underwent emergency surgery to save his life. Thanks to the skill and knowledge of the medical personnel and his own indomitable will his prognosis looks good . However, due to the extent of his injuries he will be unable to return to work while he makes the long road to recovery. I am starting this fundraiser to support Dakota during this time of need, and hopefully take some of the additional burdens off of him while he takes time to heal . Dakota served as a veteran of the National Guard and the Elkland Township Fire Department as well as currently being a Wind Turbine Technician in the Bad Axe Area. It is my sincere hope that as a community we can pull together to help make this journey for him a little less rocky.
