He was at the back of his mail truck getting his mail ready for his next deliveries. A driver speeding recklessly crashed into the back of Mike&#8217;s truck and critically injured him severing his leg off and leaving him critical in the \u00a0hospital at this moment. Mike is such an amazing friend and coworker of mine and he delivers the mail to my house everyday. His wife and two daughters can use this money to get by until any sort of financial compensation comes from the postal service and or workers comp. Please find it in your heart to help him out.
