Help Keaton get all his new needs!

Donation protected
As some of you may already know, my best friend/brother, Keaton McConnell, was in a motor vehicle accident on May 22nd, 2020. He was pinned in his semi for roughly an hour and a half. He was then care flighted to a trauma center in another state. He was paralyzed from the chest down with little sensation in his upper extremeties. He suffered fractures at C5-C6 and C6-C7, which required immediate surgery to stabilize his neck. He is out of surgery and he is stable. Once the swelling subsided, he had another neuro exam completed. The nurses, doctors and surgeons have been excellent with the communication. Due to COVID-19,  he has not been able to have many visitors during his stay! His father moved to be closer to family for as much help as he could get. We found out that he is coming home in approximately 2 months. As of right now, he is not coming home with ANYTHING! His family will be paying out of pocket until he is in Oklahoma for 30 days and gets approved for Insurance and social security disability. When he gets approved he will have a home health nurse but they will have to buy a van to transport him around. With Keaton’s dad losing his job due to COVID and his age, no one will hire him locally because he cost to much. They are living on his social security check which is not very much a month. They will need things such as a hospital bed, a wheel chair, a lift to get him in and out of the shower, ramps, money to be able to make the doorways wider so Keaton can get his wheelchair through and all medical supplies for at least 60 days. He has been in the hospital for almost an entire year! He has come such a long way, but his family just needs a little help to make it through! If y’all could, please help him and his family! Anything would help out a bunch! We really appreciate all that is done for him and we are so thankful that Keaton has come so far! Thank you all again!
