What started as an exciting football game turned into a nightmare when Thomas broke his arm and underwent surgery — but complications afterward left him fighting for his life. He has endured ICU stays, organ complications, and a long road to recovery. We are raising funds to help cover overwhelming medical expenses, emergency care, and ongoing treatment as we fight to bring Thomas back to health. Any support means the world to us during this difficult time.

Full Story

Recently, our world turned upside down. Thomas Killingsworth was playing football when he scored a touchdown, but a hard tackle left him with a broken arm in two places. After being rushed to the hospital for surgery, things took a terrifying turn.

During recovery, complications caused severe trauma to Thomas’s airway and lungs, leading to ICU care and over a week of life-saving treatments. Just when we thought things were improving, he experienced sedation-related complications that caused heart rhythm issues, cardiac arrest, and a rare, serious condition affecting his organs and muscles — something the doctors here had never even treated before.

Now, we are facing a long, uncertain road as Thomas’s heart, kidneys, liver, and muscles slowly recover. The medical bills from surgeries, ICU stays, and ongoing treatments are piling up fast, and the emotional and financial burden is overwhelming.

Thomas is strong, determined, and fighting hard every single day. We are asking for help so we can focus on his recovery without the constant fear of how to cover these expenses. Your donation — no matter the size — will go toward medical bills, medications, and the care he needs to heal.
