Thanks for your interest in helping, everyone! I’ve started this GoFundMe to help my nephew Ricky and his fiancé Kaitlyn, who were in a horrific accident on 02/16/2024 involving another pickup truck and a garbage truck. The vehicle they were in had just been purchased and they were on the way home with it. The truck was ripped in half and their injuries are severe. Ricky and Kaitlyn sustained multiple injuries that will require multiple surgeries and months of recovery.

This is the sum total of what we know now. Ricky has…

Ruptured spleen

Ruptured gallbladder

(Both were removed during surgery)

Punctured lung

Severed bladder

(This be hopefully be fixed in surgery soon)

Broken ribs

Broken mandible

Broken pelvis on both sides

Broken scapula

Brain swelling

Hemothorax

Fractured sternum

C6 fracture

Fractured L5, L4, S1, and S2

Breathing tube

Broken nose

Multiple bruises and abrasions

His abdomen was left open so they would be able to access his injuries for surgeries.

Kaitlyn had…

Both bones broken in both arms

Damage to her carotid

Broken pelvis

Neck fractures

Any help is appreciated, but please continue to pray for healing.
