Donation protected
Hello All,
My daughter Alissa (Clark) Vanderwill and her family headed to Gatlinburg, TN, Friday, April 26th, to bring the kids to a ballet show called Shen Yen, but unfortunately she was not able to attend due to the fact that upon entering the back door to the rental property, which is where the lockbox is, it was dark and as she was reaching for a light switch, there was a steep staircase about a foot from the door. In saying this, Alissa fell down the flight of stairs, which folded her in half and she was rushed to the hospital and then transferred to a trauma hospital as this is traumatic. Alissa was admitted to the hospital in TN and remains in the hospital with 3 broken vertebrates (broken neck) and torn ligaments. She lays with a neck brace on (minimum of 6-8 weeks) with severe swelling and pain as you can only imagine. The hope is Alissa will be able to be transported back to Richmond and seek further help here. You can understand all she wants to do is come home but that is not possible at this time.
Your generosity would be greatly appreciated to help with the expenses of this unfortunate accident and get her home to VA.
Thank you in advance and please keep Alissa in your thoughts and prayers during this difficult journey as those that know Alissa, know that she never stops!!
