Help Jay Recover & Support Family

Donation protected
On Wednesday the 11th, I was attacked by a group of about six to eight teenagers while I was exiting Walgreens on sunset and western where I was picking up my nerve medication. they hit with skateboards and kicked me in the head and back got a good five minutes. The assault left me with a fractured spine, broken ribs, and a broken dominant hand—my tattooing hand. Because of these injuries, I won't be able to work for at least a month, which has put me and my family in a really tough spot. The fracture in my spine is the worse as it's like getting hit with lightning everytime I move.

I'm a parent to two wonderful children, and my biggest concern right now is making sure they're taken care of while I recover. With medical bills and regular expenses piling up, it's overwhelming to think about how we will all manage without my income for the next several weeks. The funds raised here will go directly toward keeping a roof over our heads, paying bills, and making sure my kids have what they need during this difficult time. I to have a tattoo shop but we are relatively new and barely making the rent.

If you’re able to help, even a little, it would mean the world to us. Your support will help us get through this challenging period and focus on healing. Thank you so much for reading and for any kindness you can share.

or go get a tattoo at my shop or piercing! lol 6502 Hollywood blvd
