<div>Hello, my name is Ray Sullivan.
</div>
<div>I shop at a local Walgreens store located near my residence in Union Square, CA.
</div>
<div>This is a photo of a kind, elderly Walgreens Worker named Lorena.
</div>
<div>She was brutally assaulted by a homeless appearing man last May, who entered the store without wearing a mask.
</div>
<div>When Lorena stated Walgreen's mask wearing policy, the man became irate.
</div>
<div>He verbally assaulted her, and then he began stealing items.
</div>
<div>When Lorena told him to stop stealing the merchandise, he grabbed a heavy plastic hand cart and threw it at her head!
</div>
<div>A customer called 911, and she was treated on the scene for head lacerations.
</div>
<div>Then she was transported to the Emergency Room.
</div>
<div>Her assailant ran away, and was never arrested, charged or convicted for this horrific assault!
</div>
<div>Lorena suffered head lacerations, subdural bleeding and a concussion (Traumatic Brain Injury) following this senseless attack.
</div>
<div>Lorena continues to deal with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) related symptoms, such as nightly sleep disturbances (nightmares), traumatic dissociation, headaches, anxiety, depression, and a heightened sense of arousal (Exaggerated Startle Response).
</div>
<div>To make matters worse, this poor Walgreens worker has been returning to her place of employment
</div>
<div>("the scene of the crime") everyday, just to earn enough money to pay her bills.
</div>
<div>Can you even imagine, how traumatizing this must be for her?
</div>
<div>I started this GoFundMe account to help raise funds for Lorena, so she can pay for PTSD Therapy sessions.
</div>
<div>The money will also help her get access to additional Neurological testing and cranial evaluations, as necessary.
</div>
<div>PTSD, combined with a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) can often times be debilitating and overwhelming (both emotionally and financially) for the victim.
</div>
<div>Please contribute to this GoFundMe account, so Lorena can get access to the medical care and supportive services she requires.
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for your generosity.
</div>
<div>Your kind thoughts and prayers are also greatly appreciated!
</div>
