As most of you may know my aunt was in a car accident with my 3 little cousins in Crystal Lake on their way home from urban air on 9/14. Thankfully the kids are alive & okay with minor injuries bruised up. My aunt is currently in the hospital with 3 shattered bones in her leg & her ankle leaving my nana with 3 little boys to care for on top of her daughter in the hospital. My nana is bringing these boys to & from school, preparing meals, & taking care of the kids while running to & from the hospital during the day while the kids are at school to be with her daughter up at the hospital waiting for the next steps & staying in the loop on her conditions. It is going to be a long road to recovery for Amber once her operations are done & she is on the road to healing & recovery. I feel completely helpless as to how I can help lighten the load for my nana & my aunt in this terrible situation with these kids involved. It takes a village & right now they could really use theirs. I’m asking for Amber’s family members / her friends to PLEASE help with ANYTHING they possibly can. Whether it’s help with taking the kids, helping with rides to apts, meals… I am putting together a meal train for those who want to help but don’t know how. One less thing for them to have to worry about as they navigate home health care / doctor appointments / physical therapy for Amber these next few months. Obviously Amber will not be working during this time as she recovers & learns to physically do things all over again so any help is truly appreciated by both her & my nana. You can provide a meal, donate on cash app, drop necessities/groceries at the house. Anything big to small is so very appreciated. If you have any questions as to how to provide a meal for them please feel free to reach out for help!
