Hi my name is Shaylan Coleman,

On Sunday night around 10 PM, what started as a fun night out with friends turned into something that changed my life.

I was at 9th Inning enjoying karaoke and having a great time. I got caught up in the music and even stood on a chair while singing — it was all harmless fun. Unfortunately, the night escalated into an altercation that left me seriously injured.

I was assaulted and suffered severe damage to my face and teeth. The injuries required surgery, and my teeth are now in very poor condition and may not be able to be saved. I never imagined a night of laughter could end this way.

I do not have medical insurance, and the cost of surgery, dental work, and continued treatment is overwhelming. Beyond the physical pain, this has been emotionally devastating. It’s hard to look at myself, but I’m grateful to be alive because this could have ended much worse.

I am seeking accountability for the individuals involved, and I am humbly asking for help — whether through donations, sharing this page, or offering resources — to cover my medical expenses and support me as I recover physically and emotionally. Any contribution, no matter how small, truly means more than I can express.

Thank you for standing with me during this difficult time.
