Prayers and Support for Sophia's Recovery

Donation protected
Hi everyone, my name is Julia Ruscillo. On the morning of February 7, at approximately 2:30 am, my younger sister, Sophia, was involved in a hit and run accident while crossing the street at her school, Penn State University. Police and health officials were at the scene immediately to take her to Mt. Nittany Hospital, in State College. She was then transported to Geisinger Medical Center in Danville, PA, where she is being treated in the Trauma ICU for her critical injuries. Currently, she is on life support and has not opened her eyes. During the accident she suffered a collapsed lung, skull fracture, and brain bleed. She will be in the ICU for at least a month, possibly longer. Hopefully she can be transferred near home, NY, in the coming future. Each day is a new day, and each step is progress in her recovery. My family is absolutely devastated. Our hearts are broken. She is only 20 years old. If you know Sophia, you know she is full of life, courageous, strong, and a fighter. God is by her side, guiding her through this. Her support system is strong and she is loved by so many. We ask for your thoughts and prayers for our little girl as my family navigates this terrible nightmare. Thank you.
