I have been in touch with Beau and Stephanie and they are humbled by the support, but not surprised; as over the course of the last 11 months they have witnessed that “our people” are wholeheartedly kind and generous.

It is no secret to anyone who has personally (or through a loved one) experienced a prolonged illness, the medical bills and related costs mount quickly and can easily reach an overwhelming level that lasts beyond recovery.

Relieving the financial burden allows Steph to focus on recovery and trying to keep life at home as “normal” as possible for their children.
We don’t want anyone to think that just because we reached the goal, additional funds are not needed, or that contributions will not be accepted.

In light of what we have seen as pent up demand to help, those of us that are advocating for this family are making the decision to increase the goal to an amount that welcomes additional help and acknowledges that there is still an unknown on the horizon.
The unknowns will continue to include medical related care, travel to and from Mayo, recovery time and an extended return to work process for Steph.
We have made the decision to establish our final stretch goal of $40,000.

The impact of contributions have had an immediate impact already and will continue to help the Solis family bounce back from the emotional and financial rigor of cancer.
The Solis’ have expressed their gratitude and awe of God’s Grace placed upon them through your loving contributions.

Thank you for your kindness, compassion, and empathy!

As the Solis’ would say,
With Faith, Love and Gratitude
TeamSteph
