A Southern California family is asking for the community’s help with medical expenses after their son, a Washington State University student, was hit by a car and has since undergone major brain surgery.

According to a GoFundMe account, 19-year-old Kyle Osborne was traveling to Southern California to visit family for Thanksgiving and was hit by a car on Sunday, November 24.

He suffered hemorrhages as well as internal and external bleeding. He’s since undergone several major surgeries and has suffered two strokes.
