Two weeks ago on October 13, 2025, our hearts were shattered as my 36 year old sister, Stacy, suffered an injury that caused cardiopulmonary arrest. She was revived and flown by MedEvac to a trauma center in Denver, where she is currently still in the ICU. Unfortunately, due to the lack of oxygen during her arrest and subsequent initial seizures, she now has been left with a severe anoxic brain injury. To say this has rocked our world is an understatement.
Stacy is a wife to her loving husband, Brian, who has yet to leave her side and wonderful momma to their three-year-old daughter, Charli. She is so dearly loved by her family, multitude of friends, co-workers and even strangers who have continually lifted her up in prayer for healing. The initial neurologist said she may never open her eyes, would never have purposeful movement and be ventilator dependent the rest of her life. In true Stacy fashion, she has opened her eyes, she has followed a few occasional commands and is off the ventilator, although now requiring oxygen with a trach. Stacy is a fighter, always has been. She’s smart, strong, courageous and never backs down to a challenge. If anyone could pull through from this, she could. The void we feel without her laughter and presence is massive. It’s a true miracle she’s even still with us.
We are still in no way out of the woods, as everyday we are faced with new challenges and praying through each hour. Although we don’t know what the future holds for Stacy, we serve a God who does. We are praying fervently for supernatural miracles that only God can do, for supernatural strength and peace over her husband as he walks an incredibly difficult path and comfort over their little girl, who doesn’t understand what’s happened to her mommy.
Brian has been by Stacy's side around the clock as she fights to recover. While his company has been incredibly supportive, this unexpected situation has still created financial challenges, especially with future medical needs and long term rehab. Any donation received would be greatly appreciated and used towards any medical expenses that have accumulated, as well as allowing Brian to stay at Stacy’s side and anything their daughter, Charli, may need throughout this. If you are unable to donate, we simply ask for prayers and to lift up Stacy’s name to the Lord for miraculous healing.
