Please help me get back on my feet after I was carjacked

Hi, my name is April, I live in Beavercreek Ohio, I'm a single mother of 4 children and I've been an STNA in a nursing home for 17 years. On March 23rd, 2025, at 1:30 am, I was sitting in my car on my break and was live on TikTok when, just as I was getting ready to get out of my car and go back into work i look to my right and spot a man walking towards my car, i looked back at my phone for a second and then looked around and didnt see the man, a second later the man punched my passenger side window, yelling at me bitch let me in. Then he jumped in my car and punched me in my face as he was yelling and cursing at me telling me, 'Bitch, drive.' I fell out of my car and landed half on a curb and half under my car. I tried to escape, so he jumped in the driver seat and punched me in my side and tried to pull me back in my car in an attempt to abduct me while telling me I had one choice and that was to drive. I was on the ground kicking and screaming while trying to scoot across a curb and up on the island where I was scooting on my back across mulch and between bushes, trying to get out from under my car so he wouldn't drive over me. Thank God I was able to get away, but he carjacked me and stole my cell phone as well. He then wrecked my car in another county, and due to the accident, my cellphone was damaged to where I have to get a new one. He was arrested, taken to the hospital, and then transported to the jail where he later fought the COs and medical staff and was tased. He later tried to fight the COs again after they were trying to stop him from banging his head into the cell bars. They again had to tase him, pepper spray him, and then transport him to the hospital where he later died. This violent attack has been very traumatic for me and my children and left me scared, having panic attacks and unable to hardly function, im now dealing with his family and/or friends harassing me on social media.

Now I am without a car as they have totaled it out, which leaves me with hardly nothing after they pay off my loan.

I worked really hard to have the nice car that I had, and now I'm left with nothing. I have been put off work for at least 60 days without pay on medical leave, and I'm scared to return due to the fact that the news put it out there where I work for everyone to know. I am unable to pay my bills and could potentially lose my home that I just purchased 2 years ago. I also worked very hard to finally own my first home in my forties and provide my children with a better place to live. I don't ever ask for help, but I am in desperate need of help to get a car and pay my bill while I am off work seeking therapy for PTSD. Anything would help, no matter how small even if it's just $1. I was the victim of a violent crime. I did not deserve what happened to me, and my children don't deserve this either but we are suffering due to what this criminal did to me. Please share this with everyone you know. If you want to know more, I have links to the articles and proof of my car being totaled out police reports and the tiktok live video that caught the whole thing.

If you can't donate, please just share this everywhere and pray for me and my children to get through this very traumatic and difficult time. Thank you and God bless.

UPDATE- I returned to work after 2 1/2 months off because I didn't have a choice I need to pay bills. Unfortunately I only worked 5 days and I went to the ER with severe pain in my side that I've been dealing with for a month but it got unbearable. I ended up having emergency surgery to have my gallbladder removed. I was only suppose to be out of work 2 weeks but I got an infection in one of my incisions so now I've been out of work another month all unpaid and Unfortunately im in the same pain once again and runny a fever and will probably be returning to the ER. At this point Im desperate I didn't even want to have to make this but I have to keep a roof over my kids heads.
