Urgent Help Needed: Recovery & Support After Gunshot Injury

The Story

On the night of Tuesday, November 5th, 2025, around 10:00 to 10:30 PM, my life was dramatically and violently changed when I was shot. The single bullet caused devastating injuries to both of my legs.

The damage to my first leg was severe: the bullet entered, shattering my femur, and then continued through. In the other leg, the same bullet passed in and out, causing significant trauma. I am incredibly fortunate to be alive, but I am now facing an extremely difficult and long road to recovery. I am currently [Insert current status, e.g., "recovering at home," "in a hospital," or "at a rehab facility"].

The Challenge Ahead

I am the owner of my own business, which requires me to be on my feet and physically active. Being laid up with such extensive injuries means I am unable to work at all—and I have no idea when I'll be able to generate income again.

I live in my RV with my two beloved dogs, who are my family. Without being able to work, I am struggling to cover basic necessities, while also facing high medical costs. The costs associated with physical therapy, necessary medical equipment, and the massive loss of income are overwhelming.

Your support will directly help cover:

Medical Bills & Physical Therapy: Necessary appointments and equipment to regain the use of my legs.

Loss of Income/Daily Living Expenses: Food, RV utilities, and maintaining my home for myself and my two dogs.

Specialized Care: Things like home health care assistance as I cannot perform many daily tasks myself.

How You Can Help

I am reaching out to my community, friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers for help during this critical time.

Donate: Any amount helps ease the financial burden and allows me to focus solely on healing.

Share: Please share this GoFundMe link on your social media, email, or with anyone you think might be able to help.

Prayers & Well Wishes: Above all, I ask for your prayers and positive energy as I face the pain and challenge of this recovery. Knowing people are rooting for me gives me strength.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my story and for any way you are able to assist. I am determined to heal and get back to work, but I cannot do it without your support.

With immense gratitude,
