Natalie's Recovery

Donation protected
You know what the worst thing in the world is?  To be betrayed by someone you love. We all know that feeling, that pain that seems like it will never end. Yet sometimes, some of us get physically hurt from someone's betrayal as well.

Sometimes some of us get left on the side of the road because someone does not want to take responsibility.
So the responsibility falls to her loved ones.
But we won't leave her behind.

Natalie is a current student at Western Michigan University- Thomas M. Cooley Law School, Tampa Bay.
She is the warmest spirit of anyone you will ever meet and we love her more than anything. We will never leave her behind, not on the side of a road, not in a hospital, never. We are her loved ones and here is her story:

On September 17th, 2016 our Natalie was involved in a motorcycle accident where the drunk driver was caught attempting to flee the scene while leaving her injured on the side of the road. This motorcyclist was not insured, nor was Natalie covered by health insurance. There is no settlement that can be pursued for the tough journey she has ahead.

Natalie's injuries are extensive. She had a collapsed lung, injuries along the entire left side of her body including complete loss of hearing, surtures on her face and a fractured temporal bone, and what is worse she has a brain bleed that has not stopped. We cannot speak too loudly to her, nor can we touch her. Any stimulus makes her cranial pressure spike up and bleed more. She is currently not able to breathe on her own and is non responsive.

Although Natalie is receiving amazing treatment, there is no insurance to help with the medical bills that have started to pile up.

But we won't leave her behind.
Please help us not leave her behind.

It will mean the world to Natalie, her family, and her friends for any amount of donations so we can do everything we can to guide in Natalie's recovery and get her back to the wonderful smiling girl she is.

Thank you, and God bless.
