Fund established at Wells Fargo for Saint Mary’s accident victim
WINONA, Minn. — Saint Mary’s University senior Sabrina Larson Bushlack, 21, of Mapleton, Minn., was critically injured in a car accident July 16, in Fort Wayne, Ind.
According to the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette, Bushlack was injured after the taxi she was riding in was struck by a car that police said ran a red light.
Bushlack — a biochemistry major and three-year regular for the Cardinal volleyball team — remains under sedation because of swelling on her brain and is in intensive care at Lutheran Hospital in Fort Wayne, Ind. Doctors are optimistic about her prognosis.
A fund has been set up at Wells Fargo Bank to help the Bushlack family with rising medical expenses — including flying Sabrina back to the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn. Donations may be made by contacting any Wells Fargo Bank (including Wells Fargo at 875 34th Avenue, Winona, MN 55987) and indicating that the donation is for the benefit of Sabrina Bushlack.
A “Team Brina: Sabrina’s Biggest Fans” Facebook page has been set up for family and friends to share their thoughts and prayers. More than 1,200 members have joined in support of Bushlack.
“Our thoughts remain with Sabrina and her family during this difficult time,” said Brother William Mann, president of Saint Mary’s University. “The entire Saint Mary’s community joins me in prayers for recovery and strength, and we look forward to the day when Sabrina is able to return to campus. She’s a very special student who is loved by many.”
