Kenneth said the following: “She has multiple broken bones. Both femurs are broken - the right one has a horizontal break and the left has two vertical breaks, both shin bones, both pelvic bones, and a broken ankle. She has a very large gash on her right upper leg just above the knee that severed a lot of blood vessels.
“She has been in and out of surgeries most of the day on Wednesday. So far, they have fixed most of the broken bones in her lower half. But she will still need a lot of time to recover. Please bear with us while we try to work through this. Also please keep in mind this is a family matter.”
Kenneth said he hopes to raise $10,000.
