Financial help for Braxton and his mom and dad

Final Update for this fundraiser

Sadly heaven gained an angel in January. Braxton is whole, happy, and at the lap of Jesus. Here are some words from his mom Shea..

"My sweet baby boy. You fought the good fight. My impossible became reality. I dream you are playing soccer and coloring and being able to do all the things you couldn’t do on this restricting earth. God has blessed you down here and me and your dad could not have been more happy to be your parents. No parent should have to do this and it’s not fair. It was so peaceful and amazing. An angel in the book of life wrote down braxtons name and decided to close the book and said “you are to beautiful for earth”. "

Keep Shea and Dane in your prayers as they mourn the loss but celebrate the short life of Braxton.

UPDATES FROM 12/1/2023

Today Braxton gets his Glenn which is a repair for his heart and requires open heart surgery. This will be his 3rd one in his almost 5 month old life. His fight has been difficult but he has fought through so many difficulties and has come through them all like a champ. I believe God has carried him through it all. Please pray for each and every medical professional that will touch him today will be held up by Christ. Pls pray for support for Dane Tressler and Shea Stansell Tressler and that God will hold them in his arms and support them and give them peace. Pls pray as the doctors work on his heart for them to have steady hands and clear minds. We have felt all the prayers you all have sent and so appreciate each person who have stood behind Dane, Shea, and Braxton. Dane and Shea are amazing parents and have not left his side. There is a go fund me set up if you feel led to give that would be appreciated but if not prayers are much appreciated.

UPDATES FROM 10/9/23

Braxton could use some prayers! He went into cardiac arrest this morning and now is on ECMO and intubated again. He is in the cath lab right now and the doctors are trying to figure out what is going on with his shunt and why he keeps throwing clots. Please pray for Braxton, the doctors and nurses, and Shea and Dane - we are thankful every prayer for Baby B.

From Shea and Dane today 10/2/2023

“Braxton Allen Tressler-

At 20 weeks pregnant, we found out Braxton had a congenital heart defect. It was later found out it was hypoplastic right heart syndrome with tricuspid atresia. Meaning the right side of his heart didn’t develop. The right side of the heart is what delivers blood to your lungs so the rest of the body can get it.

Braxton was 2 weeks old when he had his first open heart surgery. He received something called a BTT shunt so his lungs could get the blood they needed to help the rest of the body out. That shunt got a blood clot stuck in it twice requiring this long hospital stay.

A week ago, he had his second open heart surgery that took out that BTT shunt and it was replaced with a central shunt which is a much harder surgery and subsequent recovery. We have had many ups and downs with baby Braxton. We are so grateful for all the prayers that have been given to us and baby Braxton. We will be in the hospital till his next stage in the process called the Glenn procedure!

So please keep sending prayers we love every single one of them! 

We are also so grateful for all the donations that have been given to us to be able to stay with Braxton this whole time and make sure he knows how loved he is and how much support he has in his corner! “

GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
