On June 8th my mother, husband, 2 young children and I were headed north on highway 15 to my parents lake place. An oncoming driver crossed the middle lane and hit us head on. The car spun and rolled several times and went into a ditch. My children and I by the grace of God managed to get out with a few bumps and bruises. My husband, Kurt, and mother, susan, were not as lucky. My mother ended up with a spinal injury, 3 broken ribs, and a broken arm. Kurt suffered a C5-6 spinal injury. His neck was dislocated and fractured. He is paralyzed from the chest down. He has some movement in his arms but not complete feeling. Kurt was a healthy individual who loved to play with his kids, work in the yard and garden, and coach our daughters baseball team. He is the rock of the family both emotionally and financially. He is working hard everyday in rehab to get home to the kids and I. The kids miss their daddy very much. We are working hard to get the home ready for him to come home but we need some financial help with the home renovations and getting a wheelchair accessible van so that Kurt will still be able to attend important events in our childrens lives. Kurt is now home. The kids are so happy to have him home. We have purchased a van to help him get to our kids events. He is happy to be able to attend our daughters baseball games. Kurt has to sleep in a hospital bed that has an air mattress. We have had problems with storms knocking out the power. This creates a huge problem. We are now trying to get funding to equip our house with a generator. This way if the power goes out we don't have to worry about either getting him out of bed or him not being able to go to bed. Any help that can be given to us would be tremendously appreciated.
