Fixing The Damage After Getting Shot
Donation protected
On June 5th 2am I was visciously assaulted and a gun went off in my right side face shattering it. (CBS News reported this.) Sparing you more graphic photos the damage included - nose and jaw both broken, face ripped open, hole in my sinus and orbital floor shattered in the ambush. I have a titanium plate now, some scars and dents. My jaw was completely wired shut to help heal all the fractures so I could not eat for several months and remained fused even after removal. (All evidenced in the profile photo. A testament of what I suffered through mentally and physically. Luckily I was also blessed to have 3 great teams of specialists tend to me. )
Fast forward today I'll need your support to help me regain my former self again. I'll need oculoplasty to fix my tear duct and lower eye lid, fat grafting to fill the dents and lasering to erase my scars. Not to mention more rehab on my jaw (it still opens only half way, a hindrance on eating normally) and it looks like I may have to remove the plate to allow further healing... It will take all this year and then some for recovery. Any donations are very appreciated. Feel free to share this link to help expedite:

Thanks for all your concern, loyalty and support last year during the months following my attack. And I hope this year is much kinder. Looking forward to seeing my former self again with your help. I also hope by going publically my attackers will be caught and dealt with swiftly. (I was not allowed earlier to share any details to protect myself per the lead detectives on my case and risk jeopardizing my own testimony.)
