Help Guy Recover & Build After Traumatic Incident

Dear friends and supporters,

 

We are reaching out to you with heavy hearts and a plea for assistance, which we are not used to doing, but felt might be necessary due to the circumstances. Our father, Guy, recently faced a traumatic incident that left him hospitalized and facing a long road to recovery. On October 5th, his car was stolen, and in a horrific turn of events, he was run over by the thief, causing severe injuries.

(Link to full news article attached below) 

Guy has been in the hospital for five agonizing days, and his journey to recovery will continue for weeks in an inpatient rehab once he is released from the hospital. The extent of his injuries include a broken nose, broken fingers, torn ACL and MCL, requiring surgery, fractured ankle, bruised ribs, a large mesenteric hematoma on his side, along with cuts, road rash and bruises all over his body. These injuries have caused him excruciating pain and the loss of his ability to walk/complete every day tasks without serious assistance.

As we support our father during this challenging time, we are humbly asking for your support. Your generous contributions will help cover his mounting hospital/inpatient rehab bills, medical equipment/expenses, bills that will accumulate due to him being out of work and the modifications needed in his home to ensure a safe and accessible environment during his rehabilitation.

Our goal is to raise $15,000 to alleviate the financial burden on Guy and our family trying to navigate through this crisis. Every donation, no matter the size, brings us one step closer to providing him with the care and support he needs.

Your kindness and generosity will make a significant impact on his journey to recovery and rehabilitation. Thank you to anyone able to donate and help our father rebuild his life. Thank you for your support, love, and prayers during this difficult time.

Also here is my cash app/ Venmo for anyone who is able to donate without the fee's of the GoFundMe.

Thank you so much

Sincerely,

The Simons Family
