On Friday, Debbie’s daughter, Bella, was involved in a serious bike accident that resulted in a traumatic brain injury requiring emergency neurosurgery. She is currently in the ICU, sedated, and under close medical care as she begins what we know will be a long road to recovery.

No parent is ever prepared for a phone call like this. Debbie has been by Bella’s side every moment, focusing on her daughter’s healing and taking things one hour at a time. While we are hopeful and encouraged by Bella’s strength, the reality is that the medical expenses, time away from work and ongoing care will place a significant financial strain on their family.

Bella is strong, resilient, and deeply loved by so many. We are asking for prayers, positive thoughts, and any financial support you feel led to give. Every donation — big or small — will go directly toward medical bills, rehabilitation, and helping Debbie stay by Bella’s side without the added burden of financial stress.

If you’re unable to give financially, please consider sharing this page and continuing to keep Bella and Debbie in your thoughts. 

Thank you for rallying around this family during such an unimaginable time.

(Tiana is a long time friend and co-worker to Debbie. I will add Debbie to this as soon as possible!)
