A mother resorted to an unorthodox manner to gather funds to get her daughter help with medical and everyday expenses after she broke both her feet.

Nicole Yunker, of Peoria, Arizona tried to jump in the pool and instead landed on the side of it, smashing her feet on impact with the hard concrete surface.

*A video of the incident is posted above, but please be advised as to its graphic, shocking content. Her mother, Carrie needed to raise money for Nicole to be able to live on for the next few months. The Daily Mail informs that the recent high-school graduate cannot go to work as she is currently bound to a wheelchair.

She had just moved in with roommates, who also appear in the video. Carrie Yunker launched a fundraising campaign on gofundme.com and posted the clip of her daughter, a gesture which many are criticizing as inappropriate.
