In a quiet hospital room lies the girl who gave my life its meaning. You may feel small right now, my love, but to me you are the biggest, brightest thing in this world. You are the reason my heart beats and the greatest gift I will ever receive. No matter what, you are wrapped in more love than the world could ever hold.

Antonia is an 11-year-old with a bright future and a big heart. She dreams of working with animals and going to college one day. Recently, Antonia was in a devastating car accident caused by a reckless driver, forcing the car she was in into a wall. She suffered five broken ribs, lost two feet of her small intestine, has a grade 3 tear in her spleen, and two fractures along her spine. She is facing multiple surgeries and a long road to recovery.

Our family is deeply concerned for her, and the coming weeks will be challenging as her mother will be out of work to care for her. We are struggling with medical bills, lost income, child care, food, and gas expenses as we focus on Antonia’s healing.

Any assistance will help us cover these urgent needs. Your support—whether through a donation or by sharing our story—means the world to us. Thank you for helping Antonia and our family through this difficult time.
