Recently, Steve experienced a life-altering incident that left him with a traumatic brain injury (TBI) and a shattered leg. Our priority now is to provide him with the best possible care and help him on the path to recovery. However, the extensive medical expenses and ongoing rehabilitation costs have placed a tremendous financial burden on our family.
