Hi everyone,
I'm reaching out today to ask for your support for my brother, who was involved in a devastating accident on September 5th, 2025.
On his way to work that night, he was either assaulted or struck in a hit-and-run — we’re still unsure of the exact circumstances. We’re hoping to have more answers once he wakes up.
Thankfully, a good Samaritan found him and flagged down the police. He was rushed to the nearest trauma center, where an incredible medical team worked quickly to save his life.
I was notified later that night and flew to Los Angeles the next morning to be by his side and support our mom through this crisis.
He sustained a severe head injury, including multiple skull fractures and brain hemorrhaging. Due to the extent of his injuries, he was placed on a ventilator for several days. While he is now on oxygen, he has not yet regained consciousness.
My brother is one of the kindest, happiest, and most hardworking people I know. The outpouring of love and support from his friends has been overwhelming, and we’re incredibly grateful — more than words can express.
As you can imagine, this has been both an emotional and financial shock for our family. That’s why I’m reaching out to our community — to ask for any help you can offer, whether it’s through a donation or simply sharing this message with others.
All funds raised will go toward his medical expenses, rent, monthly bills, and general living costs, especially since he won’t be able to return to work for quite some time. Once discharged, he’ll also need ongoing rehabilitation therapy as part of his recovery.
Thank you so much for reading — and for any support you can give during this incredibly difficult time. It means the world to us.
With deep gratitude,
Nicole Small
