On Monday, May 9th we will once again set off for Jacksonville, Florida to take Brandon to the Mayo Clinic. While there, he will undergo a complicated procedure to remove a 100% blockage from his femoral artery, which presents a big chance of stroke.

Brandon has been battling familial hypercholesterolemia for the past two years though he has had this condition his entire life. While in his 20's he did not have the full diagnosis and, therefore, was not receiving proper care for his condition. Due to this, we have been playing catch up to manage the extensive done to Brandon's vascular system, which has resulted in 7 angiograms, one open-heart procedure and dozens of trips to the hospital and ER.

Jamie has been the only financial provider for the family and Brandon's primary caretaker for the past two years. Though we've paid most of May's bills, there is $0 leftover for travel expenses. The Wilson family will travel (including Chase and Kalina) to Jacksonville and need to secure a hotel room and pay gas fees. Jamie will likely miss 10-15 days of work, resulting in a $0 paycheck where she usually would support the family on $1800 every two weeks.

We are simply looking for hotel money, gas and help with the loss of wages for our family.

Brandon has lost his father, grandfather, uncles, and, last year, his brother to this disease. Please help us support his continued fight for his life!
