⚠️ Warning, this may be sensitive to certain people!⚠️ Hi, I’ve never done this type of thing before. My name is Hollyn Lewis. Almost about a month ago me and my beloved boyfriend I have known since 8th grade had got into a very nasty and horrible wreck. I’m starting this gofundme for the expenses towards fixing my face/teeth. My boyfriend had some type of seizure while driving on the interstate in haughton louisiana going 70 mph causing us to hit the back of someone’s truck (they had no injuries) and going airborne twice then hitting a tree full on. To sum this up, he was unconscious and doesn’t remember anything while I was fully conscious and remember a lot just not in the correct order. He had fractured his nose in 4 places and busted his two front teeth out and had to pull one out of his gum due to it being shoved up in there from the impact. They had to do a frenectomy above his missing two front teeth. His eyes were swollen shut for about 3 days. We both ended up getting surgery. Me on the other hand, had basically got the worst out of it. I had broken my top jaw, it had positioned itself up and backwards and I couldn’t close my mouth. I had a fractured rib, a 4-5 inch laceration in the back of my head that ended up with 9 staples on it along with nerve damage in the same place. I chipped alot of my beautiful teeth that took 3 years of having braces to fix. I had broke my nasal septum in my nose. I have complete nerve damage in my cheekbones, nose, and down to my top lip. I cant feel anything in those certain spots and may not regain feeling back. But only time will tell. They wired my mouth shut during surgery and I ended up with 26 screws and 4 plates in my face and mouth. That day my whole world came crashing down because I had really thought the love of my absolute life was dead. He was pinned on top of me with his head face down into the passenger seat floorboard and all I heard was him gargling on his own blood. I was going completely hysterical and have a lot of trauma and ptsd from it. I occasionally have nightmares and am in the process of trying to see a therapist. I have always been insecure about my looks and now I am extremely insecure about them now. I really am terrified of even stepping foot into a vehicle nonetheless driving down a road. I am making this fundraiser to help cover the costs of the rest of my journey with my teeth and my mental health as well as helping my boyfriend with the expenses for his teeth. I am just grateful to be alive to this day and I thank god every second I get. I am beyond grateful for anything I receive even if it is just 1$. I have never been the type to ask for help, I always put others before myself and I will always continue to do so. I am 18 years old and have currently been out of work since my surgery. Anything I receive will be more than enough for me. I appreciate your time and energy into reading my story. God is so great❤️
