Support for Kim Wilhelm McKeon

Hello, On March 3rd, their first day of vacation, Kim and her sister Cheryl and her brother in-law John witnessed a tractor trailer and multi-vehicle accident on Route 70 in the Colorado mountains outside of Denver. They pulled over and got out to try and help a family who had rolled over in their car. As the family was climbing out of their vehicle, another car lost control and slid off the road, leaving them all in the direct path. While others escaped harm, Kim was hit by the vehicle and thrown into the families car, suffering substantial injuries to her upper body. Among many other injuries, she suffered 19 broken ribs, a broken arm, broken scapula, a broken pelvic bone and severely bruised and collapsed lungs. 

As of March 10th, Kim is making progress but is still on a respirator with her 2nd surgery planned soon.

We've created a GoFundMe account to help with the cost associated with Kim's long recovery and extended time in the Colorado hospital. As you can imagine, there are many costs for Kim and her family related to this type of accident, especially as she is far from her home in New Jersey.  

Your donations will help pay for the medical cost, travel cost and hotel cost for Kim’s daughters and family during the expected extended recovery in Colorado and eventually back in PA/NJ.

Thank you for all of your wonderful support and donations on behalf of Kim.

Kindly, Kim’s family.
