DIACHONAE HOPE MILLER

Her Story...

Diachonae Hope Miller was born May 11, 1987. She was diagnosed with multiple mental disorders in her adolescent years. Through therapy and medication her mother was able to manage and control her symptoms.

In 2009 Diachonae was involved in a hit and run accident, dragged 40 ft. and left for dead. She survived but sustained a brain injury, was left paralyzed and needed 24 hour care.

She could not feed, bathe nor dress herself. She had a colostomy bag, a catheter and had to wear diapers. She had to relearn things we learn as a baby! This caused her severe trauma in addition to the trauma she experienced as a child. Imagine being young and vibrant, then waking up one day in ICU helpless, not being able to walk, talk or having any memory of what happened.

Over the next 10 years, after the hit and run, Diachonae endured at least 30 major surgeries and more hospitalizations than 1 could recall

Diachonae eventually had to get both of her legs amputated at different times which caused even more pain, grief and mental anguish. She was very hurt, confused, angry and distraught. She often refused therapy and suffered in silence because she didn't think she needed help and she didn't want to take medication or be labeled. It was her belief that nobody cared or understood what she was enduring. She wasn't herself but through it all she kept a smile on her face and she was always singing, dancing and cracking jokes.

In 2019 Diachonae lost her life-long battle against mental illness. Diachonae was my beloved baby sister. In honor of her and her life, the D. Hope Miller Foundation was formed. Her name will live on forever and the world will know her story! I vowed to not let her unfortunate death be in vain and to spend the rest of my life impacting, saving and changing lives. Her memory will live on forever through this organization. -Aia Miller
