Emily is a 22 year old and from Salt Lake City. She went to go see one of her favorite bands at a local venue. Around the middle of the show, Emily was standing on the out side of a mosh pit when a man wearing steel toe boots went to "crowd kill" and round house kicked her in the jaw. She was immediately knocked unconscious and carried out by a friend and strangers. She was taken to the hospital and put into emergency care. Four MRI's were taken and a team of neurologists found that she had brain bleeding along side her broken jaw. After the bleeding stopped and they subdued her pain, they took her in to the Ortho/Trauma ICU. After two more days, she had A 6 hour reconstructive surgery implanting 4 metal plates to reconnect her jaw to he face. After the surgery we found out that her jaw was hit so hard on one side that it broke the other side free from the muscle tissue and the only thing keeping in her face was her skin. She spent a total of 6 days in the ICU and will have 3 month recovery. Her jaw is wired shut for the next two weeks and she will be unable to work. Medical costs will be very high. Any support or donations are greatly appreciated. Also, Emily went to a show to have fun and to support a band she loves. No one should ever leave a show in this condition, no matter what kind of music you are going to support. Have fun out there but please, not in such an inconsiderate and violent way. Please be mindful. My name is karlee, she is my little sister. We live in salt lake with our parents Anne and Tom Hoffman. All of the funds will be going straight to her medical bills
