Hi, my name is Lux (@luxsyel). I’m an 18-year-old artist, model, and urban explorer. On the evening of July 30th, I was injured during a climb while taking photos for a creative project.

I fell through a hidden gap and suffered a serious external cut and internal bleeding near my upper thigh. The injury is still bleeding and extremely painful, making it hard to walk or move.

Anyone who knows me knows how full of life I am — always climbing, creating, and chasing views that take your breath away. Climbing is something I love deeply. I know it comes with risk, but nothing could’ve prepared me for this. One wrong step, and I was inches from falling off the side of the building. I could’ve died. That moment changed everything for me.

I’m so incredibly grateful to be alive. But now, I’m facing medical bills, recovery time, and the reality of not being able to work or create right now. I’m asking for help to cover:

• Emergency medical care

• Wound care & follow-up appointments

• Prescriptions & healing supplies

• Transportation to treatment

• Living costs while I recover safely

I’m trying to heal as fast as I can — physically and emotionally. Any support you can offer, even just sharing this link, truly means the world to me. This experience has reminded me how fragile life is, and how important it is to take care of each other.

Thank you so much for reading this and supporting me through something I never imagined I’d go through. Your kindness is helping me get back on my feet — and one day, eventually back on the rooftops again.

With love,

Lux
