Dan Weinraub Recovery fund
Donation protected
We are raising money to make Dan and Nikki’s life a little easier after his accident causing head trauma this weekend in Las Vegas. This money will go towards helping with their travel, hotel stays, and medical bills. Also to help out while he will undoubtably be unable to work for an undetermined amount of time. All money will be going directly to Nikki and Dan.

Here is a word from Nikki detailing the accident and updates on his status so far:
As some of you know, Dan and I came to Las Vegas on Friday for a wedding. Friday evening while the 2 of us were getting something to eat, Dan fainted and hit his head very hard. I will spare the details, but I thought I could have lost him. He was put in a medically induced coma with some brain bleeds and skull fractures. Yesterday they were going to slowly take him off the ventilator to see how he was breathing on his own. Dan had other plans and ripped the tube out himself (that’s my guy). He is now breathing on his own and the neurosurgeon has decided he won’t need any surgery. ——> The bleeds and fractures should be able to heal on their own and as of this morning they have not gotten any worse which is great news. He is able to respond to commands but isn’t communicating much yet. He is in a lot of pain and not very happy to be in the hospital, obviously. This will be a long road but I’m praying we can get back to California as soon as possible. He will be moved out of the ICU and into a regular hospital room today which is a great next step. Both of our moms came out immediately and are here which has been a saving grace. ——> This has been by far the absolute worst thing I’ve ever been through. Dan is without a doubt the love of my life and all I need is to be with him. He is so incredibly strong and I know he will be good as new soon. Please keep him in your thoughts and send him all the strength you can. Everyone that has reached out already, I’m sorry if I haven’t gotten back to you. This is obviously very overwhelming but I will tell Dan everything everyone has said and I truly appreciate it all. It helps. I’ll keep everyone updated.
