On Thursday July 9th in the early evening, Federica Borlenghi was involved in a severe skateboarding accident in Mason, Ohio. She hit the top right portion of her head on a concrete bicycle path and was rushed by ambulance to the hospital. She was placed on sedatives and a ventilator to keep her airways clear and flown by helicopter to Cincinnati, Ohio to receive additional treatment. She has since been released and is in physical and cognitive therapy programs, while her prognosis is good, she is without health insurance and has insurmountable medical bills .
Her full recovery is of paramount concern, however, the cost of these life-saving services is staggering. As an Italian international on a student visa living within the United States, Federica is not covered by typical insurance plans and must pay for medical bills upfront. This is a daunting task for anyone - especially for a young 24-year-old graduate like Federica .
Every dollar donated will go directly to Federica's hospital bill and subsequent therapy at an off-site location. Absolving this monstrous bill will help Federica continue her dream of directing and producing theater within the United States and assure a bright future unencumbered by medical debt.
