Sommer Skye, the daughter of our poker buddy DrCheckRaise, is a 21 year old young lady full of energy with a beautiful spirit, who had been living on her own for only a short time. Late one night, she was returning a video to the video store for a friend and was involved in a head on collision just a few miles from her home.
She had 11 hours of soft tissue surgery on her face on the night of the accident, and there will be additional surgeries in the years to come. Her family is so thankful that she was fortunate enough to survive that evening and prays that this will not break her beautiful spirit.
The auto and medical insurance will not come close to covering what lies ahead. Please consider helping this young lady not to lose hope so early in life.
Sommer Callis Medical Relief Fund
A medical relief fund has been set up to aid Sommer's long and expensive recovery. Donations can be made via the following link to her Medical Relief Fund Site:
