<div>I Survived a Motorcycle Accident — Now I’m Asking for Your Help to Recover❤️‍
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hi, my name is Roman. I’m 33 years old.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Until recently, I was working, building my life, and pursuing my dreams — just like anyone else. Then, everything changed in an instant. 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>About a month ago, I was riding my motorcycle when a driver suddenly turned left across oncoming traffic, cutting into my lane. She failed to yield — I hit the brakes and braced for impact as it was too close for me to stop.
</div>
<div>The collision threw me over 20 feet through the air before I hit the ground. I received multiple open fractures and lost a significant amount of blood on the scene.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Then I was rushed to the "Providence Holy Cross Medical Center" where doctors fought for my life, trying to stabilize me and putting me back together.
</div>
<div>After a total of 10 hours spent in the surgery room and having to receive an emergency blood transfusion of 5 units to stabilize my condition - I was transferred to ICU for next 5 days, with both hands, legs and neck wrapped and immobilized.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Having spent a month in the hospital I’m now recovering at a care facility in Northridge, facing multiple serious injuries, knee ligaments surgery and a long road ahead:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Left arm: double fraction in 2 places
</div>
<div>Right hand: broken wrist and thumb
</div>
<div>Left leg: compound fracture in the thigh and lower leg — both open fractures
</div>
<div>Right knee: torn ACL/MCL/FCL ligaments that require surgery
</div>
<div>Neck: T2 &amp; T3 fracture
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Doctors estimate a minimum of a year for recovery, including multiple surgeries, physical therapy, and full-time care.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Medi-Cal doesn't cover Physical Therapy, nor Occupational Therapy, which I need to get back up and walking.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I’m going through all of this alone — I have no family nearby, and I lost my job due to the accident. It’s not easy to ask for help, but I truly need support to get through this.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>That’s why I’ve created this fundraiser
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your support will help cover:
</div>
<div>-Upcoming knee surgery
</div>
<div>-Rehabilitation and physical therapy
</div>
<div>-Medical equipment and in-home care
</div>
<div>-Basic living expenses during recovery
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Even a small donation or a share means the world to me. Thank you for being here and for standing with me during this difficult chapter.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to read my story,
</div>
<div>for caring, and for helping me take one step closer to walking again.
</div>
<div>-Sincerely, Roman
</div>
