Joey is the thirteen year old brother of one of my dear customers, and I would love to be a part of the effort to raise funds for the medical expenses that were a result of a horrible accident that recently took place.

I am offering a mini custom--Auction Style, so bid as high as you can for a chance to win a set of three Bagshot Row Bamboo custom made fitteds, and let's help Joey toward a more speedy recovery. Every bit of funds that are raised will be going directly to Joey's recovery fund, and I will cover shipping of the fitteds.

Below is just a little bit of information that Joey's sister provided us with:

Joey just turned 13 in May. He was hit while crossing the street on his dirt bike. The young girl that hit him was doing 45 miles an hour in a 30 mph zone, ran a stop sign and was driving on the wrong side of the road. Since Florida is a no fault state, and Joey was not 16, and obviously didn't have a driver's license, the girl that hit him is getting off scott-free. She's not recieving so much as a ticket for any of the moving violations.

From being hit, Joey is lucky to be alive. The only thing that saved his life is his helmet. The injuries from the accident are brutal. He has a broken arm, both legs are broken, his hips are broken in 8 different places, and most of his top teeth are missing on the left side of his mouth. My mom doesn't have dental insurance to cover the cost of him getting new teeth. Medicaid is paying his medical bills from the accident, and for one cleaning on the teeth he has left.

He loves being outside and he's so upset that he can't just get up and go outside and play. He's always been a pretty active kid. I really don't know what else to say. Just let me know if you need anything else.

The donation to the church that is doing the fundraiser will be matching dollar for dollar what comes to them to help fix Joey's teeth, and they'll be doing the fundraiser until all his teeth are fixed.

Sorry, bidding for this item has ended. The winner is cboos!
