Hello friends, family and guests my name is Kaelee, and my younger sister Tori was recently in an auto accident with her two young daughters (ages 3 and 4) that has already been life changing.

On her way home, a truck came out of a side road and struck her car, causing her to hit him head on, t-boning the truck. In a panic from the burning smell and smoke, she jumped out to get to the kids, not realizing her car was not fully placed in park. The car then began to roll back causing her to become pinned between her car and the truck. Luckily, three men were there to get the vehicle off her. Tori and her youngest Amari, 3 years old were rushed to the hospital. Amari had a large bump on her head. Her oldest was physically ok but clearly upset from the incident.

Once at the hospital Tori was told she has four broken bones, 2 in her pelvis 1 in her back and also her tailbone. Amari had an x-ray/cat scan and was cleared to go home. Tori finally got out of the hospital after getting cleared.

At this time, she is looking at a long recovery and if you know her story you would know that she had been struggling for years with severe anxiety and panic attacks. After much strength and hope she was able to fight through those battles and overcome anxiety, she was then able to enroll in college to ensure that her and her daughters would have a good future.

Tori received her massage therapy certification from NorthCareerCollege and also her Associate's degree from CSN May 2025. This was the first month she was fully able to finally feel like she was on her feet, just to have it all ripped out from under her again. For someone that is self-employed at such an early stage of her business is utterly heartbreaking, especially everything that she has been through to get here. If you know my sister, she has the biggest heart. Always, reaching out to others and sincerely wants nothing but the best for everyone.

This is going to be a really long haul and we are asking family and friends if you can please help in this time of need. I know everyone is having a hard time but even $5 adds up, if you can find it in your hearts to help her and her girls. If you can’t we understand. Words of encouragement are also appreciated to lift her spirits during this difficult time.

Money will help with her rent, utilities, medical cost etc.
