Dear friends, family, and kind strangers,

I'm reaching out on behalf of my dear friend, Terry Hochstedler who recently underwent life-saving open-heart surgery. This unexpected health emergency has taken a huge toll—not only physically and emotionally, but also financially.

Terry is one of the strongest, most generous people I know. They’ve always been the first to offer help to others, and now it's our turn to support them in their time of need.

While the surgery was successful, the road to recovery is long.

We’re hoping to raise funds to help ease the financial stress so Terry can focus fully on healing. Any amount you can give—no matter how small—will make a difference. If you’re unable to donate, sharing this page with others would mean the world.

Thank you so much for your support, prayers, and kindness during this difficult time.

With gratitude,
