Support Raphaela Cristeli's Urgent Medical Needs

At about 3:00 on Friday, July 4th, my best friend, Raphaela Cristeli, was hit by a speeding car on the highway. As our Fourth of July started off strong, none of us thought that this was how our day would end.

After being hit, Rafa encountered many severe injuries like head trauma, internal brain bleeding, a ruptured spleen, and fractured hips. She was rushed to a hospital nearby, and then she was transferred to a children’s hospital in Providence Rhode Island for surgery on her stomach. Due to her spleen being ruptured, the doctors had to completely remove it in surgery. She will also need surgery on her brain to stop the internal bleeding if it does not heal itself.

Your donation will help cover the expensive medical bills, anything helps.
