Just $5 can help Liv recover from brutal assault -

Donation protected
This last year has been an unreal nightmare that no child should ever have to go through, and no parent should ever have to cope with. My daughter, Liv has been hospitalized 5 times, undergone 4 dental surgeries, takes 11 pills a day, and has weekly medical appointments with various specialists.

All of this because in March of last year, Liv was restrained by her neck, strangled, and had water forced down her throat (waterboarding) while in class, by a boy who just happened to be sitting next to her.

·         Because of this she missed her entire junior year of school.

·         She suffers from severe PTSD, which needs continuous (possibly lifelong) treatment and medication.

·         She needs major mouth surgery with ongoing care, which includes jaw injections for the rest of her life

·         The pain in her neck and back causes migraines which require monthly appointments

·         And she has a chronic lung condition caused by the water being forced into her lungs.

Here medical, therapeutic, and dental expenses have totaled over $75,000 to date and continue to climb.

We are pleading with anyone and everyone to please help us keep her medical care going. She is a fighter and she's on the road to recovery, but this is just too much for one family to handle.

She needs $14,237.00 to cover her current medical bills.









Liv was an active, bubbly teen who dreamed of being an actress. She's been in several TV commercials and Disney TV. We uprooted the entire family and moved to Atlanta to help her achieve her dream and attend the Center for Excellence in Performing Arts at Pebblebrook High School. Now she is a quiet girl struggling to make sense of what happened to her. She can longer be in front of an audience so she's channeling her creative energy into writing and hopes to write for children's television.  

It's been a struggle both emotionally and financially, but we were able to cover her expenses until I lost my job when COVID19 pandemic shut the city down. Unfortunately, her medical needs cannot be put on hold.

Any amount helps. No parent can prepare for such a horrific and senseless tragedy. It has been a very difficult year, but she is recovering and slowly finding her new normal.
