Help with Shelley's Expenses
Donation protected
On the evening of Wednesday April 12th Shelley was out horseback riding. Horseback riding is one of Shelley's favorite pastimes. Unfortunately, this ride did not end like the rest. The next day Shelley awoke at Munson Medical Center ICU with family surrounding her searching for answers...
We may never know a 100% of what actually happened that evening but here is what we do know. Shelley was in a horse back riding accident on the night of the 12th. She was thrown from her horse and was dragged over 300 feet. Once she became detached from her horse she laid in the woods, unconscious with only her dog Frank by her side. 16 hours later she was found, still unconscious and barely alive with Frank still by her side. The doctors would later say that they believe Frank saved her life. Frank laid on her for 16 hours keeping her body warm enough to survive. He is our hero!
Once found, Shelley was rushed to Munson Medical Center suffering from severe hypothermia, a fractured skull, bleeding on her brain and multiple lacerations on her arms and body. The last 8 days Shelley has been surrounded by her children who have come to be by her side. In the next few days she will be transported down-state to a nuero rehabilitation center where she will begin her long road to recovery.
With brain injuries such as Shelley's it is uncertain what the next several months will look like. We do know that she will spend the next 2 weeks at a patiet rehabilitation center with numerous out-patient visits following that.
Shelley will be unable to work for the next few months while she recovers and all funds collected via this fundraiser will be put towards her expenses. These expenses will include: Medical bills, rehab expenses, mortgage payments and more.
The Williams family extends their most sincere thanks in advance for any donation you give. These funds will help in making this road to recovery a bit easier.
