On Thursday afternoon my bestfriends sister Audrina was involved in a tragic and horrific bus accident while traveling with her classmates to PA for a marching band event. 

Audrina was rushed to a nearby hospital with severe injuries and transferred by medvac to Cohens children’s hospital. She is currently in the PICU, and going in for surgery. Audrina has multiple fractures to her neck and spine with multiple lacerations all over her body as well. She has a very long road to recovery. 

Audrina is an exceptional kid, that dedicates and spends her time with the farmingdale Fire Dept junior brigade training, learning and hoping to one day be a full member and to become a firefighter/EMT. 

Her older sister is a dedicated member and captain of Hicksville FD EMS. 

And her grandfather an ex capt of Hose Co #4 with the Hicksville Fire dept. 

They are a family of service, always willing to run out the door to help everyone else’s family and complete strangers. It’s our time to come together for them & take some of the weight off of their shoulders while they tend to Audrina’s needs and recovery and allow mom to take all the time off she needs to be with her daughter. 

Please keep the family in your thoughts and prayers! 

As well as all of the other families affected by this tragedy.
