Medical Expenses help for Chris Reed

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Kayla Johnston and I am raising funds for my uncle Chris Reed and aunt Elvia Reed. Chris was in a terrible wreck on August 17th and had to be flown to Roanoke Memorial and have emergency surgery for internal bleeding and removal of his spleen. Chris went through several surgeries while at Roanoke Memorial and still has a long way to go. He will require more surgeries on his foot and possibly more on his hip. He was in Roanoke Memorial until Friday, September 1st and is currently in Richfield Rehab in Salem where he will be for the next 4-6 weeks as of what we are told now. Due to the open wound still on his chest/stomach and the surgery on his pelvis he can not sit up more than a 60 degree angle, and will be required to be medically transported to his doctors appointments off-site of the rehab center. The insurance will not cover this transportation and one trip for this type of transportation is very expensive $800 per trip and there are 4 planned within the next two weeks ($3,200 total for medical transportation alone) and it is required due to the restrictions with his pelvis and the surgeries that were required to repair that. Chris being with us is truly a miracle from God and our family thanks all who have prayed for Chris, Elvia and DeeDee during this time.
If you are so inclined to make a donation these proceeds will go toward medical expenses, medical transportation and travel expenses and will go straight to the family. Thank you all so much in advance.
