Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out with a grateful heart and asking for support during an incredibly challenging time for our family.

At the beginning of January, I (Ali) started a new job filled with hope and excitement for what this next chapter would bring. Unfortunately, almost immediately after starting, my youngest baby, TJ, began suffering from respiratory distress, requiring ongoing medical care and close monitoring. As a result, I’ve had to take a two-week leave of absence from work to be by his side during this critical time.

While TJ has been making small but encouraging improvements, this journey has been emotionally and financially overwhelming. We are hopeful and praying that he will be able to return home by the end of next week, but the unexpected time away from work, combined with medical-related expenses and everyday bills, has created a heavy burden.

This fundraiser is to help cover living expenses, medical-related costs, and lost income during this time so I can focus on what matters most — being present for my baby and supporting his healing and recovery.

Any donation, no matter the amount, would mean the world to us. If you’re unable to give, sharing this fundraiser and keeping TJ in your prayers is just as appreciated. Thank you for your kindness, love, and support during this difficult season. We truly couldn’t get through this without our village.

With love and gratitude,

Ali
