<div>During the early morning hours of May 9, 2021, the life of Mary Carlson and her family changed dramatically as the result of an individual 's reckless and criminal acts. More details and articles pertaining to this incident can be found through the updates.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This crime spree throughout the city of Pittsburgh involving the multi vehicle car accident with Mary suffering from a spinal cord injury causing non-reversible quadriplegia. Mary is paralyzed from the chest down. And although she can move her arms with limited mobility she has no hand functions and is unable to move her legs. She is now a total assist and requires care 24/7. She is unable to perform even the most basic activities of daily living such as feeding, bathing, dressing, transferring.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Prior to the accident, Mary was the provider of her family for over 10 years and overnight Lost the only income that the family had. Any savings including 401(k) etc. Was used to keep the family afloat but that quickly ran out and after the six month period was up and she began receiving disability it was too late for many Financial obligations and the vehicles were repossessed in credit cards went into default. The generous donations from gofundme has been the only thing that has truly helped us get through many dark days. Over these four years we have been waiting for lawsuits to finalize in hopes that we can have some kind of compensation moving forward for the future.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Not only has Mary's life physically changed, but the lives of the entire family have changed. Her children were forced to grow up overnight and unfortunately be exposed two things they shouldn't need to at that age in order to help their mother. She will never be able to hold grandchildren or dance at her children's weddings. She has missed graduations and sporting events and overall any activities that she used to do with her family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We continue to need donations and truly appreciate those that have had the ability to help us during this time. The funds received are used for many reasons including:
</div>
<ul>
<li>Co-pays
</li>
<li>Medical bills
</li>
<li>Medical supplies
</li>
<li>Household expenses
</li>
<li>Food
</li>
<li>Clothing
</li>
<li>Expenses for the children
</li>
<li>Health and hygiene items
</li>
</ul>
<div>Dealing with this condition has been like a roller coaster ride and trying to balance being positive while dealing with frustration and feelings of despair. Having faith in a bigger plan is what gets us through. God bless those that have helped in the past and those that will help us moving forward. Please read down through the updates as we try to keep people informed. Thank you so much❤️
