Efforts to help those injured in Saturday's drag race crash that left two boys dead continued to expand on Monday night.
GoFundMe drives for Rebecca Cedillo, Chance Jones and Katy Walls, all critically injured, have been established to help defray medical expenses. The six-year-old son of Jones and Walls was killed during the crash when a driver lost control of a 1990 Ford Mustang at Kerrville-Kerr County Airport. An eight-year-old boy also died from crash-related injuries on Saturday at Peterson Regional Medical Center.
Cedillo, a resident of Converse, is the aunt of the eight-year-old boy, a family friend told The Lead. Cedillo is in an intensive care unit at San Antonio's University Hospital. Cedillo's GoFundMe organizers said she has already had several surgeries.
"Rebecca has undergone multiple surgeries and still has more to go," organizer Ulises Flores wrote. "She is a loving mother, wife and friend. Any donation is greatly appreciated."

Kary Sabedra employs Chance Jones at Modern Diesel LLC near Austin and organized a $150,000 fundraising effort to support Jones and his family.
"Chance's oldest son lost his life in this accident, his two younger kids were checked and released, and his girlfriend is currently recovering in a hospital as well," Sabedra said. "Chance and his family have a long road of recovery and healing ahead of them."
Walls and Jones have a three-month-old daughter together, who Jones was holding when he was hit, according to a friend of the family. Jones also has a four-year-old son from a previous relationship. Walls remains in critical condition at University Hospital in San Antonio.
