Hocking College student Attiah "Tia" Fogle had dreams of joining the Navy and becoming a chef at the White House. As a culinary student, she was working toward this goal until last October, when a car she was in failed to negotiate a curve. Fogle ended up wrapped around a tree in Riley Township in Ohio.
Fogle and her two friends were on their way to Clyde, Ohio to spend the night at a friend's home before going to Cedar Point the next day. She had to have her legs amputated due to the severity of her injuries. Fogle has undergone 20 surgeries since the accident.
Her family owes $3.3 million in medical bills and has to make their home disabled friendly. To support the Fogle family and help Tia get her legs back, nearly 300 people attended a fundraiser that raised around $8,000. The family is very thankful for everyone's support.
