Medical Aid for Terry Luttrell’s Recovery

I’m Kristin, Terry’s daughter.

Sunday June 15th after the historic farewell show for REO Speedwagon members at the State Farm Center, my dad was involved in a rollover car accident on I57.

He’s stable and alert, but has some internal damage that’s going to need more long term care to get back to his usual self. Being 78 and receiving these injuries can be difficult to bounce back from and he will need more care and time than someone younger would. Along with his ER visit and hospital stay, he’s going to require at least a couple weeks of in-patient rehab for the fractures in his back, neck, and sternum. He also sustained damage to his brain and heart that need to be monitored.

These funds will go to help him pay any outstanding medical bills he may have outside of insurance. With him at the hospital in Illinois, there will be out of network costs since his home territory is Tennessee. We already know this care is going to leave him with a hefty bill. Also this will be used to help him with any follow up care he may need when he gets back home to TN.

Our family is so thankful that he’s still here and realize how the situation could’ve ended differently for all of us. We’re asking for prayers of healing and comfort. We thank you for the support.

If you would prefer to bypass GFM’s fee you can give to @krissyroo03 on VNMO Mark “Terry Recovery” in subject line.
