Medical & Travel Expenses for Liam Mathis

Donation protected
Last night my cousin Liam (15), was involved in a hunting accident and was airlifted to St. Louis, with a gun shot wound to his leg.

In a situation like this, many people would panic or give up. Liam got himself down from the deer stand alone, applied pressure and used a stick and his shirt, as a tourniquet to stop the bleeding.

Liam’s bravery and courage saved his own life and our family couldn’t not be more thankful for his quick, proactive thinking.

Liam is a great friend, brother, son and grandson. He would do anything for anyone and would be the first friend to stick up for you. He is small, but mighty!

He enjoys doing all things outdoors; finishing, hunting, camping, etc. Him and his brothers have learned so many valuable life skills over the years, which contributes to his ability to think fast and save himself in an accident like this.

Liam definitely had a guardian angel pushing him through this scary situation. With this past Sunday being the anniversary of our Grandpa Herb passing, I can’t help but believe Grandpa was there to protect and guide Liam when he needed it most.

He has a long road ahead of him and more surgeries, potentially a long stay at Barnes Jewish Hospital in St. Louis.

If you are able to donate anything to help alleviate some of the stress of the upcoming expenses that Sue and Jed will have during his stay- anything would be greatly appreciated.

Please keep Liam, Sue, Jed, Ethan, and Corbin in your thoughts and wish for a very speedy recovery.
