Help Us Care for Malachi After His Car Accident

Donation protected
Friday, April 25th changed our lives forever.

My 17-year-old son Malachi was in a traumatic car accident that resulted in a broken pelvis and sacrum. After hours in the ER and major surgery, we’re now planning for dish charge home — but everything looks different. My strong, active, gym-loving boy now needs help doing the most basic things: getting out of bed, using the bathroom, even sitting comfortably. He’ll need constant care as he heals.

As a mom, I am doing what any parent would do — putting everything aside to care for him. That means stepping away from my job behind the bar at the Nutrition Clubs and into a full-time caregiver role. But it also means we’re facing a financial hit we didn’t see coming — from medical equipment to transportation to basic bills.

We didn’t plan for this. We weren’t ready. But I know we’ll get through it with faith, love… and maybe a little help.

If you feel led, your donation will go directly to:
• Equipment for home recovery (walker, wheelchair, etc.)
• Home care costs
• Transportation to physical therapy and doctor appointments
• Replacing lost income while I care for him full-time

Malachi has a long road ahead, but he’s here. He’s alive. And for that, I’m endlessly thankful. Thank you for praying, giving, sharing, and loving us through this season.

With all my heart,
Juanita (Malachi’s Mom)
