Today, we are asking you to open our hearts as a group of Tony Gestone’s closest friends to ask for your help and support for someone who means everything to us.
On the morning of Thursday, April 9th, Tony was in a devastating car accident that changed his life forever. He is currently fighting for his life with severe injuries, including brain damage, spinal damage, and two collapsed lungs, among other things. He has already undergone two major surgeries, one of that being brain surgery and the other reconstructive. He still remains in critical condition, fighting every second resiliently.
Doctors have given Tony a very limited chance of survival. And if he does survive, it is possible he could face paralysis for the rest of his life. But, if there’s one thing we all know about Tony, it’s that he is a fighter. He is strong, resilient, and the kind of person who never gives up. He perseveres, he is determined, and he can push himself through any battle and end up on top. The obstacles he has already overcome since his accident have been astounding, and we have faith that he can fight his way through this very tragic, heartbreaking and scary time.
Tony has always been there for all of us. He’s the friend who shows up, who checks in, who makes people laugh, who lifts others up when they need it most. Now it’s our turn to be there for him.
His mom, Angel, has not left his side and is carrying an unimaginable struggle and facing every mothers worst nightmare. The medical expenses are overwhelming, the thought of Tony's future is overwhelming, and the road ahead for him will be a long and incredibly difficult journey.
We are asking for your help during this heartbreaking time. Any donation, no matter the amount, will go directly towards Tony’s medical care, ongoing treatment, rehabilitation, and helping support his mom as she stands by him every step of the way.
If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this, and saying a prayer for someone we love so deeply.
We believe in Tony. We are standing by him, and we are not giving up our faith. Please help us show him and his family that they are not alone, and that we are all in this together.
Thank you from all of us, for your kindness, support, love, and prayers.
