On Monday, April 15, 5-year-old Elijah and his mother, Shawntella, were in a horrific rollover car accident on Poplar Level Road, sending them both to the hospital, with Elijah in serious condition.

Today, Elijah remains in the hospital with his mother, family and friends by his side.

Elijah is bravely making his way through five surgeries and the family needs not only our continued love, but our financial support. With his mother at the hospital and unable to work, the medical bills are mounting.

My name is Brian Phillips, and I’m one of the people who stopped to help save Elijah and support his mother, Shawntella, immediately after the accident. Read The WLKY Story Here.

I’m now helping Elijah and his family in a more long-term way; ensuring that once they leave the hospital and the medical bills start to arrive, they can pay them while getting back on their feet and have a sense of normalcy again.

Please join me in supporting this brave little boy and his amazing mother.
