Perich Family Accident Recovery Fund
Donation protected
On Friday, June 26th on their way home from an afternoon at the beach, the car that Dan, Angela, Thomas, Michael and his dog Mandu were in, was hit by a truck from behind, pushed into oncoming traffic and subsequently struck by yet another truck that was also pulling a trailer. The driver fled the scene, but is currently in police custody.
Dan suffered 3 broken ribs, bruised lungs, and a concussion. Michael has several serious lacerations, multiple contusions, a concussion, and chipped teeth. Angela has a broken collarbone, a bruised lung, multiple cuts and a broken toe. Miraculously Mandu was not hurt.
Thomas was severely injured with pelvic fractures on both sides and internal bleeding; he was airlifted to Hennepin County Medical Center Friday evening and underwent several surgeries over the next few days to stabilize and repair the damage. At this time he remains hospitalized, and will require months of complete immobilization at a rehab facility, followed by extensive physical therapy before they are able to return to their home in Florida.
We are asking for your help to aid the family in their recoveries, some of which will take months and will greatly affect their quality of life. We are also planning several benefits in the months to come and will keep everyone posted as those events come to light.
The Dougherty and Perich families together want to thank you deeply for your help, any contribution will be greatly appreciated, the amount does not matter it is truly the thought that counts!
