Spandana Lagishetti, an Indian student studying at Elmhurst University, Illinois, suffered a major accident after she reportedly fell 25 feet at a metro station. According to a fundraising organization set up by his family to seek help, the accident occurred on May 30. “Spandana suffered a fatal fall from a great height and suffered multiple life-threatening injuries. She was rushed to Advocate Lutheran General Hospital, where she remains in the intensive care unit (ICU) and is receiving critical care,” the fundraiser said.“The extent of her injuries is heartbreaking. She suffered traumatic brain injuries, including bleeding around the brain, severe contusion to the brain, skull fractures and injuries to the blood vessels supplying the brain. Several ribs were broken, leaving both lungs partially collapsed and requiring emergency chest tube placement. The impact caused injuries to his liver and spleen, internal bleeding, fractures to his spine and lower back, and multiple fractures to his pelvis. “He is unconscious while doctors are struggling to recover.”“Unfortunately, her medical expenses are not covered by insurance, and the costs of her critical care continue to rise every day. Her family is facing an enormous financial burden during an already heartbreaking time. Her parents in India are desperately trying to travel to the United States to be with their daughter, while also grappling with the financial challenges posed by this sudden tragedy.”According to reports, Spandana came to America for her master’s degree after completing her B.Tech from Chennai. His father works as a cab driver.
