On the evening of October 30th my daughter Brooke Durbin was traveling passenger along the Chicago Skyway when her friend, Robert, was side swiped on their motorcycle when crossing lanes. Brooke was thrown from the bike and suffered 8 fractures in her back (compression of spine and bleeding), fractured nearly every bone in her right hand, tore off her right heel, has had to have skin graphs done to a majority of her body, has had multiple blood transfusions and several surgeries to repair much of this damage. She is currently awaiting more surgeries and an extensive period of time in an inpatient rehab facility once she is able to be released from Chicago Med.

We are doing our best to remain in high spirits, with all of this being said, we are looking for support and prayers for our family in this time. The funds provided will assist with additional expenses that may occur, medical, travel costs as well as housing expenses. Thank you for your support and considerations for our family in this time of need. I will update on her condition as time allows. Thank you everyone.
