Dear friends, family, and compassionate strangers,

On October 4th, what should have been a joyous celebration of our marriage turned into a nightmare that has forever altered our lives. Surrounded by loved ones, we were brimming with happiness, but the night took a devastating turn when my husband was brutally assaulted. 

The aftermath of that night has left us shattered. George sustained severe injuries, including skull fractures, concussions, a broken orbital bone, and tragically, a permanent loss of vision and more. He has endured so much pain and had a surgery to hopefully correct some of the damage. He has ongoing medical treatments, more surgeries, and the pain he experiences daily is unimaginable.

George spent over two weeks in hospitals in Melbourne and Miami, and since then, he has had a string of appointments and more surgical procedures ahead. The physical toll is only part of our struggle; the emotional and mental impact weighs heavily on both of us. Losing his ability to work like he previously could, has placed an additional financial strain on our family, compounding our grief.

We have tried to manage this ordeal privately, but the burden has become overwhelming. That’s why we are reaching out for help. We are asking for your support to help us cover some of George’s medical expenses, the necessary travel for his treatments, and overnight accommodations during his recovery.

Every little bit helps, whether it’s a donation, sharing our story, or sending positive thoughts and prayers our way. We appreciate your kindness and support during this heart-wrenching time. Thank you for being part of our journey to healing.

With love and gratitude,

Olivia
