On May 21st 2020, Ashley Barnhill was jogging on a sidewalk in LA and was tragically hit by a car. The accident was extremely critical and nearly killed her. She has had a very long road to recovery ahead of her, but we are beyond thankful she survived.

Ashley sustained severe traumatic brain injuries from the accident and has had 4 brain surgeries. She was in the ICU at Cedars-Sinai for weeks due to brain bleeding and swelling, pneumonia, followed by a brain infection. On July 14th, after nearly two months in the hospital, Ashley was stable enough to fly home with her mother and sister to continue her recovery in Texas. She has required 24/7 supervision, nightly antibiotic injections, twelve daily prescriptions and daily rehab.

This horrific situation has been life altering for Ashley, her mother and her two sisters. Her round-the-clock medical care and multiple surgeries have been extremely expensive — extended hospital stays, travel back and forth from CA to TX, moving out of her LA apartment, continuous one-on-one rehab, prescriptions, blood draws, daily injections, and so much more. We still are not sure how much Ashley will owe out of pocket for the millions of dollars of surgeries including the upcoming surgery and hospital stay.
