FASHION FOR COMPASSION

After 7 p.m. buy at the doors please

Two weeks before high school graduation, an 18 year old young woman visited the Bloomingdale Public Library late at night to return her books. She was later found brutally raped and brutally beaten half to death. After a series of strokes and going into coma, the victim is currently residing at an unknown Sarasota rehabilitation center. She is suffering from brain damage, unable to move nor speak, and is now blind. The victim's family is nearly bankrupt because of the situation. Without the proper care and therapy, she has a low chance of gaining full recovery.

(update 09/09/08 *GOOD NEWS: The victim has recovered 10% of her vision)
