On the evening of Saturday, March 7th, our lives changed in an instant. While crossing the street to her car in Daytona Beach, my mother, Melissa Cayce, was struck by a vehicle. The driver fled the scene, leaving her with life-threatening injuries. My mom was rushed to the hospital where doctors discovered the true extent of the trauma: a severe knee fracture extending into the joint, a skull fracture, hip damage, and three brain hemorrhages. These injuries have resulted in hearing loss in her right ear and extensive wounds across her body. While she is a fighter, the road ahead is daunting. Beyond the physical pain, she is navigating the deep emotional trauma of this senseless act. Her battle is just beginning, and the mounting medical expenses and recovery costs are a weight no one should carry alone. We are asking for your help to support Melissa’s medical care and rehabilitation. Any contribution, no matter the size, will go directly toward her recovery and helping her find peace after this tragedy. If you cannot donate, please consider sharing this page to help us find justice and support for my mom.
