Our dearest friend, Sara (Latona) Burclaw has been married to Dave Burclaw for the past 21 years; they have two beautiful children ages 16 and 13. Dave is a loving, kind-hearted, dedicated husband and father, who enjoys spending time with family and friends, sports and coaching his kids. He has a great sense of humor and a fabulous smile.
Dave was recently diagnosed with Creutzfeldt-Jakob Disease (CJD) a rare, degenerative, fatal brain disorder. This started with a diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis, but soon turned into doctors struggling to identify why Dave was showing such a rapid decline in his health, both physically and mentally. Dave has been totally disabled for the past two years, but he and Sara continued to seek doctors who could identify his condition. Tragically, they have determined due to CJD’s progression, Dave has very little time left. Dave is 49 years old.
Sara & Dave’s strength and faith have been truly awe-inspiring throughout. Please consider donating to help Sara and Dave with the expected and unexpected expenses associated with this unimaginable fight. The majority of these costs now will be out-of-pocket and a significant financial burden. Your donation will be put into an account to cover items such as: insurance co-pays and deductibles related to his care, care not covered by insurance, medication, assisted living and hospice. Please help the couple to focus on caring for their family these last moments without worrying about the financial stress. Your donation will show the couple they are not alone. Whether or not we reach our goal, we appreciate any and all help, and ask that you keep him in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you!
