On December 12, 2024, my world changed forever. My first born son, Christian, was in a terrible car wreck. The doctors had to shock his heart to bring him back to us, and he was diagnosed with brain damage. Since then, every day has been a fight for his recovery. Christian is not just my son—he’s a hero to many. He’s always been the first to help others, whether it’s using his skills as a mechanic or stepping in during emergencies. He’s saved lives—literally. He performed CPR to save his friend Beau, rescued his pregnant wife and a friend’s son from drowning when their boat flipped, and even stopped a stranger from being hurt in Texas. That’s just who Christian is: brave, selfless, and always thinking of others. He’s also a loving father to his daughter Videl, who was born earlier this year.
Caring for Christian has been overwhelming, both emotionally and financially. I’ve sold all my furniture and anything of value to pay for his care, and now my car is being taken. The costs of his medical treatment and daily needs are more than I can manage alone, but I would give him my heart if I could. Christian’s journey has brought him closer to God—he found faith before the accident, and after, he knows he saw Jesus. We believe in miracles, and we believe in the kindness of others.
If you can help, whether through a donation or by sharing our story, it would mean the world to us. No one should have to take this ride alone. Your prayers and support are deeply appreciated. Thank you for standing with Christian and our family during this difficult time.
