On Friday night, our beloved Bella Williams was involved in a devastating motorcycle accident that changed her life in an instant. Bella sustained serious, life-changing injuries, and she and her family are now facing a journey they never could have imagined. Right now, Bella is still receiving care in Knoxville, and one of the family’s most immediate needs is getting her safely transported to a spinal cord injury rehabilitation center in either Nashville or Atlanta, depending on where her placement is confirmed. From there, Bella will begin intensive rehabilitation surrounded by the people who love her most. If you know Bella, you know how very loved she is. And if you know her parents and family, you know that they will do absolutely everything they can to make sure she has everything she needs in the days, months, and years ahead. We want to help carry some of that weight for them.

There are so many expenses that come with an unexpected tragedy like this—medical transportation and care, rehabilitation, equipment, travel and lodging for her family, accessibility needs, and eventually changes that will help Bella regain as much independence as possible, including adapting a vehicle to meet her needs. There are also many needs we simply cannot anticipate yet. This GoFundMe was created so that Bella and her family can focus their energy where it belongs: on Bella, her healing, her rehabilitation, and being together. If you are able to give, any amount will help. If you cannot give financially, sharing Bella’s story is another wonderful way to support this family. And above everything else, please pray. Pray for Bella. Pray for her parents and family. Pray for her friends who love her dearly. Pray for strength, healing, hope, and for the right people to be placed in Bella’s path as she begins this journey. Bella is so deeply loved, and we want to make sure she and her family feel that love surrounding them every step of the way.
