Hey everyone, on Thursday, August 12th at around 9:00 am, this vehicle made an illegal turn off the Chevron gas station on Lindley Ave and Saticoy in the city of Reseda, CA. He was turning make a left hand turn on a double yellow lane, pulling out too quickly and not realizing I was already close to him. He was blocking both lanes and stopped in the middle of the road. I tried to move away from him as much as possible and he still decided to move forward and crashed into me. I went down, in complete shock and confusion. My motorcycle was completely destroyed and my body bleeding from multiple places. The ambulance came to get me and I just remember going to the hospital, where they put me under and went to work on me. I woke up in the ICU on Saturday, August 16th, and have been in the hospital since.

My right ankle, knee and femur, are broken. With two arteries completely destroyed. A mid section liver laceration and a cracked pelvic bone on the right side.

I'm asking for your help to cover some of the expenses this is going to cost me, such as my rent, my bills, and the medical expenses until I can get an attorney and battle this, but I won't be leaving for at least another 6 weeks.

My family and I thank you all so much for your generosity.

Sincerely,

Cristian Perez
