Support Steve and Sarah- burn and stroke victims

Donation protected
Hello, my name is Amy Keller. I am raising funds for my sweet sister. Sarah Thulin, and her husband, Steve. They are the parents of ten children, and in the last 2 years have gone through devastating challenges.
   Sarah has had three  strokes, the most recent was in May 2023.  Each stroke occurred in a series of 10 month intervals. The strokes were triggered by a heart condition that has since required two  life saving cadiac surgeries. Sarah has been through multiple rounds of speech, physical, and occupational therapies and has a long recovery ahead of her 
  While the family was camping in September to celebrate a daughter's birthday, a cooking device exploded and engulfed Steve in flames,
- Steve was life flown to Regions Burn Center in St. Paul, Minnesota (roughly five hours away from their home in South Dakota)
-   His face, neck, arms, hands, and legs suffered critically severe burns. which required  multiple skin grafts.
-Further surgeries may be necessary and months of hospitalization and physical and occupational therapies are anticipated.
-Medical bills are accumulating and Steve is not able to work at this time.
- Steve is the sole provider for his family.

This is an amazing family who have suffered great misfortune in the last two years. Both Sarah and Steve have a long road ahead in the healing process. The funds raised will be used to help cover the immediate family needs and rapidly increasing necessary medical and traveling expenses.
 Thank you so much for donating to this family. They are so  appreciative of any assistance provided to them
