June 7, 2019 is a day I think we all will remember, receiving a call saying Lacy was in a car wreck. The emotions, sadness, shock, learning what happened, hearing Lacy was in an induced coma her liver was severely damaged and she was losing blood! Paralyzed on her left side, numerous times Lacy stopped breathing and had to be bagged. Due to the severity of her injuries the doctor had told the family they didn’t think she was going to make it!
But she did, she did!
August 6,2019 was the day she was released from the trauma center toTIRR where she was to start rehabilitation! Unable to talk, walk, etc.  The family was told what the plan was in working with Lacy, her therapy sessions, etc.
Lacy determined to walk again did whatever the therapist instructed her to do!
Lacy being here today is nothing but a miracle!
Wanting her release date to be all around special I contacted The Turkey Leg Hut and they donated a wonderful meal for Lacy and her family!
Chick-Fil-a donated meals for them for the next day as well. 
My goal is to obtain any needed help that the family has and to try to obtain assistance from those that are willing to be of help.
i wanted to do a room make over for Lacy and her sisters, you know, you see it on the tv home maker shows! Does him anyone have contacts, know the Property Bros or Chip and Joanna Gaines? I contacted a nonprofit called Sunshine on a Ranney  Day that does home makeovers for disabled/sick children but they are in Atlanta so that was a dead end.  I haven’t been able to find someone that helps in that manner here in Houston but I’ll keep looking, keep asking, keep hoping.
It has been very heartwarming the kindness extended.  Teachers, principals, employees of Cy-Fair school district that have reached out wanting to help, wanting to visit with Lacy. One of the most wonderful messages was from a pre-school teacher that had Lacy and a few of her siblings in her class.
The family just appreciates everyone that showed so much concern, symphaty, emphathy for Lacy, her aunt and younger siblings. They are thankful Vickie’s “angel” Henrietta L. from their church who suggested the fundraiser and just so caring and loving toward the family. 
Thank you to everyone that interacted, played a part in Lacy’s care June 7 the day of the accident and her ongoing care. You each made a difference and your dedication to your job proved vital in handling one step to the other in regards to Lacy Johnson!
