Help Dylan Get Back on His Feet

Hi!

I’m Dylan Melville, a 24 year old musician living in Chicago.

On October 10th, a week ago, I was rear ended/hit and ran by someone just 2 miles from my house while stopped at a stoplight. Based on the damage to my car and myself being at a standstill, it was estimated that the car was driving at 60 mph when it hit me. I was also hit into another vehicle/person, who ended up going to the hospital.

Obviously, I have car insurance which will eventually get sorted once they find the person who hit and ran myself and the other victim (thankfully, I got the car’s license plate). This however, has left me without a way to get around/to work, which has left me in a bit of a financial bind in regards to paying bills/affording rent on top of all of my other various expenses.

On top of this, after the shock hit I started to have immense back pain from the accident. Due to doctor recommendation, I’ve started physical therapy due to damage on my upper back/lower neck which my insurance is willing to cover as soon as they find the person. The problem with that, is the time that it may potentially take to find that person.

I’m raising a goal of $5000 to primarily just help me get by until the end of the year. This would go towards expenses like rent, medical bills, and potentially money towards a car to get around with in the mean time.

I appreciate the consideration, and more than anything, pray for me (if that’s something you do). Life’s been kinda tough the past year ish, and this kind of thing was out of my control but it’s put my mental to shambles.
