My name is Kaitlyn, and I’m reaching out for help as I recover from a life-changing head-on car accident. The crash left me with eight fractured ribs, an open fracture in my right knee, and a deep wound in my left knee that went all the way to the joint. After spending nine days at Harborview Medical Center and undergoing surgery, I’ve just been discharged and am now immobile for weeks as I begin the long road to recovery.

While I’m grateful to be home, the challenges are far from over. My insurance is fighting to cover essential things like a wheelchair and follow-up appointments, and the medical bills from this accident—and earlier hospital stays this year—are already overwhelming. I’m unable to work right now, and the costs of medical equipment, ongoing care, and basic living expenses are adding up quickly.

I’m asking for help so I can focus on healing and regaining my independence. Any support you can offer, whether it’s a donation or simply sharing my story, would mean the world to me. I am deeply grateful for your kindness and generosity during this difficult time. Thank you for helping me get back on my feet.
