I can't believe I'm writing this story.

It's been almost three months since my motorcycle accident, and my life has changed in ways I never imagined. Through it all, I'm incredibly grateful to God because I know the accident could have been so much worse.

During the accident, my left hand was crushed, and I also suffered torn hamstrings, extensive road rash, and a concussion that has left me with some memory loss. Since then, I've undergone two surgeries on my hand, and my recovery is far from over. Every day brings new challenges, but I'm doing everything I can to keep moving forward.

I'm a Master Diesel Mechanic, and I've been unable to work since the accident. My hands are the tools of my trade, and without them, I can't do the work I love. Having no income for nearly three months has placed a tremendous financial strain on my family.

The greatest blessings in my life are my wife and our three children. They have been my strength through this difficult journey and remind me every day why I need to keep fighting.

Our family is blessed to be part of Navigation Church in Collinsville, Illinois, where we've found an incredible community of faith and support. I'm also an active member of the church's Journeymen's Club, where I've enjoyed building friendships and serving alongside other men who share my faith.

When I'm not working, one of my greatest passions is restoring old motorcycles. It's something I've always loved doing, and I look forward to the day when I'm healthy enough to get back into the garage.

Anyone who knows me knows that asking for help isn't easy. Today, though, I humbly ask for your support.

The funds raised will help with medical expenses and everyday living expenses while I continue healing and work toward returning to the career and life I love.

If you are able to donate, share my story, or keep my family in your prayers, I would be deeply grateful.

Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this difficult season.
