UPDATE** Nina has been cleared to fly, and Mom Dad and Nina are flying to Ontario Saturday Aug 24th **

Sweet baby Nina, not yet a year old, was born in St. Maarten, but she is also a Canadian citizen. Recently, Nina began experiencing unexpected and frightening seizures that required urgent medical attention. The cause is still unknown. Her loving parents, Jason and Mati, have been doing everything possible to care for her, but the costs of medical treatment abroad are overwhelming.

Now, their greatest wish is to return to Canada, where Nina can receive the care she needs and where Jason and Mati can be surrounded by the support of family and friends. Unfortunately, the costs of international travel, ongoing medical bills from St. Maarten, and the expenses of resettling back into life in Canada have placed a heavy burden on them.

We are reaching out to our community for help. Every donation—big or small—will go directly toward:

Covering the cost of Nina’s current medical treatments abroad

Helping subsidize the family’s cost of return travel to Canada ✈️

Helping Jason and Mati resettle back into life at home, surrounded by community

Nina is a bright light, and this young family deserves the chance to focus fully on her health and well-being without the crushing weight of financial stress.

Please consider donating or sharing this page to help bring Nina home safely. Your kindness will mean the world to Jason, Mati, and baby Nina.

Thank you for your love, prayers, and support
