Saturday night, August 15th our lives changed in an instant when a drunk driver went airborne and crashed into my home and my car at a high rate of speed. The impact shook the whole house like a bomb, and since then my family and I have been trying to process the fear, damage, and uncertainty left behind. This is our family home, and it has been with us for a long time, which makes this loss and uncertainty even more heartbreaking. Right now, we do not know if the house is even salvageable, and insurance claims take time that we simply do not have.

I am raising funds for myself and my family so we can retain a lawyer to seek financial compensation in civil court for the damages that insurance won't cover. I am a single mother of 3 children and I have no financial help, so this crisis has placed an overwhelming burden on us. On top of everything else, insurance is now not covering the loss of our car, even though the crash was the driver’s fault. He is listed as an excluded driver and I did not have uninsured motorists on my car insurance policy. The kids just started school, our finances were already extremely tight, and I have also had to take time off work because of everything that has happened.

I am now under a doctor's care for the medical care I will need moving forward.

Any support will help us with basic needs, and legal fees while we try to rebuild some sense of stability.

If you are able to help, please know that any donation or support would mean the world to us right now. More than anything, I want to keep my kids safe and do everything I can to get my family through this difficult time. Thank you for standing with us and helping us take the next steps forward.
