Tyson's Brain Injury - Support for Medical Costs

Donation protected
On Wednesday June 5th my nephew, Tyson Wilmeth, was riding his dirt bike with co-workers when he was involved in a horrible accident and went over a 30 foot cliff.  He had to be airlifted out of the area.  He suffered a traumatic brain injury and has a long road to recovery ahead of him.  Tyson is the sole provider for his family, consisting of his wife and 2 1/2 year old daughter.  He is currently hospitalized in Montana, almost 2 hours away from home.  Once he is out of the hospital he will have to continue with occupational therapy for quite some time.  The Doctor's are estimating that it will take him anywhere from 6 months or longer to return to work, all depending on how quickly his brain can re-learn normal functions.     

Where Your Donation Will Go 
Our goal is to raise $25,000 to help Tyson & Michelle with:
- Insurance deductible of $11,000.
- Medical Expenses, co-insurance amounts, related to his hospital stay.
- Life Flight Bill, estimated at $5,000.
- Rehabilitation - Physical & Occupational Therapy visits, multiple times per week,  that insurance will not fully cover.
- Living expenses due to the loss of income including extra transportation costs. 

Thank you for reading Tyson's story. We sincerely appreciate any help or contribution, no matter how small.  Please feel free to share our campaign link with your friends. We will keep you posted on the use of funds and his progress going forward. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us directly.
