She was in an automobile accident on August 16, 2016 which resulted in her being transferred to ETMC in Tyler, where she had emergency surgery on her ankle, which was basically shattered. Fours day later she had to have another surgery to remove the hardware, which was replaced by a concrete antibiotic plate placed inside the ankle. After weeks of physical therapy, the plate stopped bending and had to be removed. On April 3, 2017 she had to have her ankle bone fused resulting in one of her legs being approx. 3-4 inches shorter than the other. She will need extensive therapy to begin the journey of learning how to walk over again.

She has been a fighter, staying strong and is very thankful to God that she is yet alive. For further information or if you're wanting to make a donation, please contact Veronica Berry at 936-488-8096.
