Shanae's accident recovery

Donation protected
My 25 year old daughter Shanae was in a terrible auto accident Thursday night (11/10/16) while on her way in to work at HonorHealth Osborn Hospital. She had picked up the extra shift to help with some financial burdens she ran into in the last month.
She was in a great mood, having redeemed her free Dutch Brothers drink with her punch card and then drove  by my job to visit me at work which is about a block from her job but I had already left, so she continued to work at 10:30pm for her 11pm shift. 
As she crossed the intersection of Osborn & Drinkwater Blvd to access the employee parking lot, she was T-boned by a driver who apparantly ran her red light and was traveling at approximately 60 miles an hour (the posted speed in that area is 35). 
What happened in the following few minutes is unclear however it seems that after hitting Shanae with such force that my daughters Dodge Nitro spun around and then ran up the curb, plowing through trees and bushes and slamming into a cement wall and breaking it. 
Shanae vaguely remembers coming to in the passenger seat, and the next thing she remembers is standing in the street with blood spilling everywhere while she cried "HELP! HELP!" as she could see the Trauma Unit of the hospital just across from her. 
She did not have a cell phone with her, so thankfully she was so close to the hospitals view. Employees ran over to help, an  officer was able to hold her before she passed out. 
All we know about the other driver is that she was cited for speeding. Shanae doesn't recall ever seeing her vehicle to know the damage. But there was no skid marks from her breaking or slowing down prior to impact. 
Shanae received stitches on her forehead. She had surgery on her right wrist which was broken and needed to be repositioned, and had 3 fractured fingers on that hand also needing some pins.  Her left hand she broke 1 finger and had a deep laceration needing stitches. 
She will be bandaged for at least 6 weeks and will need physical therapy. 
She was finally released home on Sunday 
God knows things could have been so much worse, especially if you see her mangled SUV. 
In the meantime she cant use her hands to get herself dressed, shower, eat, use the phone, open the door, etc
She also can not pick up, bottle feed, or change diapers for her 6 month old, or make food and perform usual daily parently duties for her 2 other children. 
We as her family are trying to help as much as we can but she really needs a personal aid and nanny for at least the next month. 
I am asking for your donation to help with paying someone to help her with taking care of the kids, finances while she is out of work, co-pays for doctors, Christmas gifts for the babies, having to replace her vehicle when she is able to drive, and the many other things that will arise that we haven't even thought of yet. 
Your donation would benefit Shanae, Aliya, William, and baby Dominik more than you could imagine. Especially with the holidays coming up. 
We thank you in advance and also ask everyone to continue your prayers, because those prayers have been beyond appreciated and made a huge difference in Shanae's health and condition right now
