Help Vincenzo & His Family After A Tragic Accident

Donation protected
Hi everybody. Thank you so much for visiting this donation page. We are so incredibly grateful for any donation or even just prayers & well wishes that are given, no matter how much. Our dear friend, Vincenzo, was in a horrific accident earlier this week as a pedestrian. He was crossing the street in a crosswalk on a scooter when a pickup truck ran the stop sign, ran him over, and dragged his body down the street for a few feet. He is critically injured & in immense pain.

This accident has resulted in:
- ruptured spleen
- broken ribs
- broken pelvis
- road rash
- internal bleeding
- punctured lungs
- blood filling stomach

So far they have done 2 emergency surgeries & removed his spleen.

We soooo deeply thank God that he is alive & conscious after this. That is a miracle in & of itself. He is now in the process of healing but will not be able to even walk for at LEAST 6 months, amongst other forms of healing. Meaning that he will not be able to work until he is fully healed, of course. They are now facing a ton of medical bills, physical therapy, regular bills that still need to be paid, and caring for themselves & their daughter. On top of all of that, the only person in their family who was going to be working after this accident while he heals has now been terminated as a result of the incident, without being given a reason. So now they are both unemployed until further notice.

Vincenzo is such an amazing person, friend, father, and son. He has a beautiful 3-year-old daughter who we love so much & her mom is one of my greatest friends. They truly need as much help as they can get in this difficult season & we are praying for them & loving on them as much as we can. Both of their families are out of state, so they really only have each other. Thank you in advance for your donation. They are so appreciative & grateful. And we are so happy Vincenzo is here with us today.
