Dear beautiful high school senior, remember....

Hello friends, it's been a minute since I've posted here, but this need requires an exception.

A very dear close family friend was tragically killed in a car accident last Sunday, leaving his new wife of 9 months. She was in the vehicle with him and has suffered injuries that initially were very life threatening. So far it seems God has a plan for her recovery, however, it will be a long and excruciating journey, physically, emotionally, and financially. She has several broken bones throughout her entire body, she is missing a lot of skin over her whole body due to deep road rash which will require intense skin graphs and muscle replacement or loss, head injuries, and more.

In addition to grieving the loss of her husband and the road to healing and recovery in her body without her support person, she is facing losing her job and any small amount of insurance benefits it may or may not be providing. Her injuries and recovery costs will be exponential. Way beyond even what the current goal is on this gofundme.

I'm asking you from the bottom of my heart to consider donating, even if it's $2, to her recovery.
The families and the large community of friends of this young couple have been shook to the core by the suddenness and intensity of this event. Your prayers are greatly appreciate as well. The young man's life touched many and his sudden death has been very hard to process.

On behalf of this young lady and the families, Thank you for your support!
