FULLERTON, CA (July 18, 2024) — An 18-year-old from Fullerton, Taylor Kim, faces an uncertain future after a firework accident left her with severe injuries, jeopardizing her vision in her left eye.
Ms. Kim was celebrating the Fourth of July with her family in Los Angeles County when a firework was ignited beside her. A recent high school graduate, Ms. Kim now wears glasses to conceal the stitches in her injured eye. The trauma doctor who treated her after the accident warned that there is no guarantee her vision will return to normal.
The Kim family is now focused on Taylor’s recovery and the numerous surgeries ahead, while also grappling with the financial burden of her medical care. They are taking time off work to support Taylor, who has a surgery scheduled in the coming weeks.
Her parents have chosen not to discuss the individual responsible for the accident, instead concentrating on fundraising efforts to cover Taylor’s medical expenses and long-term care needs.
