I was involved in a car accident on March 19th caused by a drunk driver. Unfortunately, I suffered a fractured humerus and significant back damage. At the time, I was unable to lift my arm, and my doctor had advised me to rest and pause work for the next 2–3 weeks while I recovered. I also had to continuously following up with an orthopedic specialist during the time. This still has been an incredibly difficult period, both physically and emotionally, as my life was put on hold by someone else's reckless decision. The pain and uncertainty have been overwhelming, but I am doing everything I can to focus on my treatment and recovery.

Because of my injuries, I have been unable to work physically and am struggling to cover my basic living expenses. I’m dealing with a situation where I really need to get my only car back in safe working condition. I’m down to the last part of the repairs, but I’m short on what I need to replace a worn tire and the tie rod on the same side. .

My mom is currently in the hospital, and not having a reliable vehicle has made it difficult to get to her since she’s a bit of a distance away. On top of that, I’m waiting for training to start for a remote job I was recently hired for, so things are tight financially until that begins.

I'm struggling right now and anything helps, whether it’s support, sharing, or just taking the time to read my story. I truly appreciate it.
