Mason Held is a native of West Fork, Arkansas and currently lives in Cozad, Nebraska with his wife and 2 young children (a three-year-old and a 6-month -old baby). In January of 2025 Mason went to the ER for the first time with health complaints with no founded results. In summer of 2025 he began getting sick more frequently and was diagnosed with sinusitis, a hopeful resolution. However, as surgery approached months later they found a lack of white blood cells which sent Mason and his family through numerous doctor’s appointments and ER trips to find the source. In November of 2025 Mason was diagnosed with MAC bacterial infection which has likely been there for the course of year and greatly compromised his immune system. Mason has been hospitalized most of November and has been escalated to critical condition with lack of immune system to fight this infection.

He and his wife are currently unable to work as they are far from home and will do what is needed to get his health back on track. He is unable to see his kids who are four hours from his hospital due to risk of illness. We are asking for any prayers or financial help to support this family as they battle this illness. All proceeds will go directly to the account of Mason Held to lessen financial burden on the family.
