Hello, my name is Crystal. I am setting up this GoFundMe for my three-year-old nephew, Dawson Ough and his family, Jeff and Marissa (parents), 2 sisters and 2 brothers.
Dawson was in horrific car accident on 10/21/21. He was flown to Harbor View Trauma Center and is still currently there.
Dawson had severe head trauma and his pelvis was broken in 7 places. He underwent surgery on 10/22/21 and had 2 pins placed in his pelvis. He will be unable to walk for 3 months and will require 2 people to care for him at all times. In addition to that, his brain injury is still largely unknown. His team of doctors is thinking he will likely need upwards of a year of therapy.
Once Dawson is stable enough to begin therapy he will be transferred to Seattle Children's Hospital for rehabilitation.
This is where you all come in....
Jeff and Marissa are hard-working people who would give anything to anybody. But this time, they need our help. Dawson's medical insurance should pay for most of his medical and therapy needs, however the biggest barrier they will face is lost wages. On top of that they will be incurring a great deal of travel expenses to go back and forth from their home in Harrah, WA to Seattle, WA for appointments and therapies at least every two weeks after he is released from the hospital. They will also have to make some modifications to their home for Dawson when he is ready to come home.
If you are able to donate anything, it is greatly appreciated. If not, if you could pass this on so that we can get the word out there, that would be amazing. Finally, if you could keep Dawson and his family in your thoughts and prayers, we would be forever grateful.
I will keep this updated as much as possible.
Thanks Again - Crystal
