Help baby Mi’lania’s Family
Donation protected
Tuesday, December 21, 2021 at about 8:20 pm the Pierite family was involved in a life threatening car accident in Arlington, Texas. The accident was caused when an aggressive, drunk driver , Tyler Hampton, hit the back passenger side tire of their Toyota Tundra causing the truck to hit and go over a guardrail, hit a concrete steel sign structure, then land on its side. In the vehicle was daddy/husband Joshua Pierite, 26, who suffered severe injuries including a collapsed lung, broken ribs and a badly broken leg that required surgery. Mommy/wife Brooklyn, 22, suffered a partially collapsed lung, broken ribs and multiple lacerations that required stitches. Beautiful, sweet, Aubrey, 4, suffered only minor injuries thanks to God and is doing well. Unfortunately, 2 year old, Mi’Lania Skye Pierite had to be med-flighted to the hospital with life threatening injuries and two days later on Thursday, December 23rd at about 9pm, she passed away. Because her body was secured by her car seat, the jolt from the head on collision caused her to suffer from severe spinal cord damage at her neck. This caused her brain to go without oxygen for longer than her little body could stand. She fought as hard and for as long as she could. She was a kind and beautiful toddler. Full of life and known among family as a little actress/singer. She loved her mommy, big sister and was the definition of a true daddies girl. As you can imagine finances will be a huge burden in this challenging time. From memorial cost for Lani, to Josh being unable to walk for a minimum of 6 months, financial contributions will be vital for this young family as Josh is the primary source of income. Medical bills are already at $500,000. The bills will continue to come so please contribute as much as you can to help this family.
