Tina’s car was completely crushed when a construction truck fell on top of it - trapping Tina inside for more than 6 hours.

That Tina survived is astounding. That she is now walking - and most recently, walking without the assistance of her walker - is nearly unbelievable.

Your generosity helped give Tina her life back. On this National Trauma Survivors Day, will you do the same for the next patient and family who need Dell Seton?

Tina was running a routine errand when her life was changed forever.

As she was coming over a hill, Tina saw a construction truck coming toward her with only two wheels on the road. Even though she tried to swerve out of its way, the truck came down on top of her car - completely crushing it and pinning Tina inside.

For six hours, first responders battled steel and time to remove Tina from the car. Dell Seton Medical Center at The University of Texas at Austin sent two trauma surgeons and two life flight helicopters into the field - an extremely rare occurrence that speaks to the severity of Tina’s situation.
