HEARTBREAKING UPDATE: Injured Grandmother Speaks Out After Crash Killed 17-Year-Old Daughter and 13-Day-Old Grandson

An injured Texas grandmother is sharing her heartbreak for the first time after a devastating crash claimed the lives of her 17-year-old daughter, Alizae “Sukie” Rangel, and her 13-day-old grandson, Ozzy.
Salina Marie was traveling in the same vehicle when the tragic collision occurred in Odessa, Texas. While she survived the crash, the emotional wounds left behind have proven far more difficult to endure than the physical injuries she suffered.

A Texas family is facing unimaginable grief after a devastating crash in Odessa claimed the lives of 17-year-old Alizae “Sukie” Rangel and her 13-day-old baby boy, Ozzy, while leaving the child’s grandmother seriously injured.
In an emotional update shared from her hospital recovery, Salina Marie spoke publicly for the first time since the tragedy, revealing the overwhelming pain she continues to endure despite surviving the crash.
“The physical pain isn’t NOTHING compared to the heartbreak I am feeling from losing my one & only baby girl & my Grandbaby,” Salina wrote.
The heartbreaking statement has touched thousands online as supporters rally around a mother who is mourning not only her only daughter, but also a newborn grandson whose life had just begun.

According to Salina, she recently underwent multiple surgeries following injuries sustained in the crash. Doctors were able to successfully complete both procedures, and she says she is now able to see, walk, and talk as she begins the long road to physical recovery.
Yet she admits the emotional wounds are far deeper.
“I can see, walk, talk and… feel,” she wrote. “I hate that I have to feel, y’all.”
Her words offer a heartbreaking glimpse into the reality she now faces—a mother grieving a daughter she loved dearly and a grandmother mourning a baby she had only known for 13 precious days.
Family members say Sukie was a young mother with her whole future ahead of her. Loved ones remember her as devoted to her family and excited about the new chapter of motherhood. Meanwhile, baby Ozzy’s brief life has left a lasting impact on everyone who knew him, with tributes pouring in from across the community.
As news of the tragedy spread, thousands of messages of support flooded social media. Salina revealed that she and her son spent part of the night reading comments, prayers, and words of encouragement from strangers and friends alike.
