On the morning of August 31, 2025, my life changed forever.

I was the victim of a horrific head-on collision. The other driver — someone who was later identified as an MRI tech — was under the influence and intentionally crashed into my friend's car in what he claimed was "God's work." He tried to kill us. I survived, but I’m now in the hospital with a brain bleed and a broken clavicle.

I'm a single mom to three amazing kids: Destiny(16), Jaliyah (16), and Xavier (13). They are my entire world. While I fight to recover from these traumatic injuries, I’m unable to work — and my biggest fear is losing our home and the stability my children need.

I never thought I’d be in a position to ask for help, but right now, I need support to keep a roof over our heads and cover basic needs while I heal. Anything you can give will go directly to housing, bills, and taking care of my kids while I work toward recovery.

Thank you for reading, for caring, and for helping in any way you can — whether through a donation or by sharing this with others.

With gratitude,

Michaela
