Donate to Aid Stella's Surgery and Recovery

Donation protected
Hi all! We’re looking for some support for our family while Stella goes through, and then recovers from, mitral valve repair surgery. Since we live in a small space in a very rural area, a meal train doesn’t work well for our family (we basically have a mini fridge and are about an hour away from our community). We’re raising funds to support us parents each being able to miss some work and to cover costs of groceries, restaurant meals, hotel stays near the hospital, and potential medical expenses.

Stella has marfan’s syndrome and severe mitral valve prolapse. We’re lucky she has been in the care of Seattle Children’s Hospital since she was about 2 and they decided it’s time for her to get her mitral valve repaired. Please also send prayers for a refuah shleimah (Miriam bat Esther).
