<div>Help My Brother Heal After a Vicious Dog Attack
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On Tuesday, June 23, 2026, my brother, Corey, was the victim of a horrific dog attack that left him with catastrophic injuries to both of his hands as well as other bodily injuries. In a matter of moments, his life has changed. He has already undergone surgery, and his recovery will require months of healing, rehabilitation, and tremendous strength.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Corey is an Ophthalmic Technician (O.D. Tech) and has dedicated himself to helping others every day. His hands are the very tools he depends on to care for patients and provide for himself. Today, those same hands are fighting to heal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The road ahead is long.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Corey is facing additional medical procedures, rehabilitation, occupational therapy, and other recovery challenges as he fights to regain the use of his hands. As his recovery continues, so do the financial challenges.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your generous donations will help provide for:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>• Lost wages while he is unable to work during recovery
</div>
<div>• Medical expenses and treatment not covered by insurance
</div>
<div>• Occupational and hand therapy
</div>
<div>• Transportation to surgeries and follow-up appointments
</div>
<div>• Everyday living expenses
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you've ever met my brother, you know he is hardworking, kindhearted, and always willing to help others. He has spent his career caring for people, and now he needs his community's support more than ever.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We will continue to share updates throughout his recovery, so everyone who has supported him can follow his progress and celebrate each milestone on his journey back to health.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are unable to donate, we completely understand. One of the greatest gifts you can give is to share this fundraiser with your family, friends, coworkers, church family, and community. Every share, every prayer, and every word of encouragement helps more than you know.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As unimaginable as this experience has been, there is one person our family will never forget. We want to express our deepest and most heartfelt gratitude to Jessica B., a courageous neighbor whose quick thinking and selfless actions helped save my brother's life. While many people might have frozen in fear, Jessica chose to act. Because of her bravery, Corey is still with us today. We can never fully express how grateful we are for her compassion, courage, and willingness to put herself in harm's way. She will forever hold a special place in our hearts. We are also thankful to other members of his community who stepped up to help in other ways.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for being part of Corey's journey toward healing. Your generosity, prayers, and encouragement provide strength and hope as he faces the challenges ahead. We are grateful for every person standing beside him.
</div>
