On December 3, 2025 the Pattons started a journey that none of them were expecting. In just over 2 months 16-year-old Caleb has experience mono, encephalitis, an emergency craniotomy, a truly miraculous recovery, a relapse, and IVIG infusions to try and prevent another relapse, among many other things too numerous to list. The Pattons are a strong family, full of faith, but this is taking it's toll on each of them. With 23 days in the hospital already, Caleb's upcoming surgery to replace the piece of his skull that was removed in December, and another 4-5 day hospital stay afterward to monitor his recovery, we would love to bless this sweet family with donations to ease the financial burden of the medical bills that are just beginning to come their way. Good insurance is fantastic, and even still they will owe a large sum for all of the great medical care he has received. Thank you in advance for sharing your resources as you feel led...no gift is insignificant, truly!
