On November 15th, 2025 my cousins Heather and Dustin were in a catastrophic car accident in Rhode Island just outside of Providence. The crash left Heather paralyzed and confined to the ICU for a week. For a time It was unclear if Heather would make it through but After a 10 hour surgery her life was saved. We are so thankful! Unfortunately she remains paralyzed from the stomach down.

Now begins the hard work of rebuilding their lives together after the devastation the accident has brought to their life. It will take a village to make sure that she and Dustin have all of the things they need to weather this storm. During this time neither of them are able to work and we ask for your support as we figure out how to pay for things like medical bills as well as basic necessities.

We ask that you give what you are able to support Heather and Dustin, we know that together we can support them and help them navigate their new life. Stay tuned for an update on both Dustin and Heather's progress and healing over the next few months!
