Hello! I’m Autumn, also known as AutumnWyvern in many circles online. On March 16th I was hit by a SUV while crossing the street on my way to work and miraculously survived, but ended up pretty scrambled. Skull fracture, plate put in my pelvis, both legs with broken bones, right leg needing multiple surgeries and may even need one more, and that’s not even everything! Due to how Florida law operates the driver basically got away with a slap on the wrist, while I ended up with my life turned completely upside down.
I’ve since been released from the hospital and am now doing in-home physical therapy and rehab. However it’s unclear how long I will be out of work for, and the iPad I primarily use for digital art was completely and utterly destroyed from being in my bag during the accident leaving me with basically zero income. While my family can support me with food, shelter, and transportation, money is very tight and unfortunately my student loans still require monthly payments on top of whatever medical bills my insurance won’t cover.
Because of the uncertainty and potential longevity of the situation I’ve set the goal based on the recommendation from gofundme, and as I get more information I can adjust accordingly.
thank you for your time and support
