Rebecca was supposed to go to Nashville this weekend with her best friend, Jessica Scheibel, but the accident changed everything. She is the most bubbly, chattery, entertaining person in the world. She s my favorite person to do everything with, Scheibel said.
Scheibel keeps contact with her through FaceTime, and she is helping raise funds for the family. I absolutely feel helpless, but the only thing we can do as her closest friends is to raise money for her and to get her the help she needs, she said.
Different businesses in the community have stepped up to give a helping hand for the Binghamton University senior. On Tuesday, part of the day s sales at Pete the Greek restaurant in Old Betpage will go to helping Rebecca get the care she needs. On Wednesday and in the days that follow, it will be other restaurants.
