Support for Connor Poland
 
 My name is Liz and this is uncomfortable for my family but we are in a crazy situation. We have not publicly talked about Connor’s health issues but now I feel I need to share.   My husband Connor Poland is facing a life-changing medical battle, and I am creating this fundraiser on his behalf as our family prepares for the difficult road ahead. After a CT scan showed an abnormality, an MRI revealed two lesions on Connor’s brain. One is very small and located near the cerebellum, while the other is a 1 inch by 1 inch mass on his left frontal lobe. This larger mass has been causing speech problems, brain fog, fluid leakage, and pressure in his head. Connor was admitted to the Neuro ICU and has since been taken off the critical list, but he is now preparing for an open craniotomy for a biopsy and possible removal of the mass on September 8th 2026. Doctors are still working to determine whether it is malignant or benign, and the outcome of the biopsy will help guide the next steps in treatment. 
 
 
 This is a major surgery, and Connor’s recovery is expected to take 4 to 6 weeks. During that time, both medical and everyday costs will continue to build, especially with two small children at home and both Connor and I working full time to support our family. Donations will help ease the burden of medical bills, child living expenses, and travel related to Connor’s surgery and recovery. Any support, no matter the size, would mean so much to us and our children during this time of need. We are staying strong and facing this together, and we are deeply grateful for every prayer, kind word, and act of generosity.  My family is everything to me. I am grateful for this life. I am grateful for the blessings we have received.
