Briles Family Medical & Travel Expenses

Donation protected

Hello! Many of you know that Kurt has been struggling for quite some time and that he & Alicia have been referred to Mayo Clinic to try to get some answers surrounding his health. The amazing team at Mayo did confirm a very rare condition/diagnosis called Frontotemporal Sagging Brain Syndrome. At this moment, they have determined that there is a leak of his spinal fluid but couldn't find the exact spot where it is leaking. Another procedure is scheduled for Friday and we won't know until after that what is next.


Both Kurt & Alicia haven't been able to work full time during all of this & are taking time off unpaid. On top of that - insurance isn't covering anything at Mayo so it all has to be paid out of pocket. They are working on an appeal but even if that does get approved, there will be co-pays & deductibles and there has been & will likely continue to be hotel & other travel expenses.


If you are able, please consider donating to this awesome family! Any little bit helps and I know they would be so grateful for the support!


If you have any questions or would prefer to donate directly and not online, please contact Carrie Burns, Trishia Johannes or Sara Drake.
