<div>Hi everyone,
</div>
<div>On Tuesday September 1st, our world was turned upside down. My brother, Ethan Romero, was hit by a vehicle while walking as a pedestrian leaving his classes at the University of Wyoming. He was life-flighted to the trauma unit at UCHealth Medical Center of the Rockies in Loveland, where he remains in ICU care.
</div>
<div>Ethan suffered significant trauma, including head injuries (fracture, swelling, and bleeding on both sides of his temporal skull), a broken clavicle, and a collapsed lung. Right now, the primary focus is on monitoring his brain state while he remains heavily sedated and intubated.
</div>
<div>The positive news is that Ethan is stable, responsive to stimuli, and can move his limbs. The medical team is encouraged, and as of now, the neurosurgeon does not see an immediate need for surgery. He is receiving world-class care.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our mom has been at the hospital in Loveland around the clock to advocate for Ethan and support his recovery. As you can imagine, the financial weight of an extended hospital stay is already building.
</div>
<div>How Your Support Helps:
</div>
<div>I am launching this fund to directly relieve the financial burden on our mom and family while Ethan is in trauma care. Your donations will go toward:
</div>
<div>* Travel &amp; Lodging: Gas, meals, and temporary housing near the hospital in Loveland so our mom can stay by Ethan's side.
</div>
<div>* Covered Expenses &amp; Lost Wages: Helping offset living expenses while work is paused to focus on Ethan's care.
</div>
<div><strong>*UPDATE* This page will now be directed at the above causes as well as just supporting Ethan's care in whatever capacity he may need in the future. </strong>
</div>
<div>Ethan is a strong, resilient, and deeply loved son, brother, and friend. If you aren't able to donate at this time, sharing this page and keeping Ethan and our family in your thoughts and prayers means the world to us.
</div>
<div>We will keep everyone updated on his progress. Thank you for all your love, kindness, and support during this critical time.
</div>
