* A Chance to Walk. A Chance to Speak. A Chance for Hope.

Hi everyone,

We’re reaching out today as parents who simply want the best chance at life for our son, Cyrus.

Cyrus was born at 30 weeks, and from the moment he entered this world, he has been a fighter. The first four months of his life were spent in the NICU, surrounded by machines, doctors, and prayers. During that time, he suffered a brain bleed at just 2 months old, which has had lasting effects on his development.

Since then, our days have been filled with therapy, medical appointments, and consultations with over 20 specialists—all in an effort to give Cyrus the best possible care. He is currently non-verbal and has limited mobility, but we have not given up hope.

Why We’re Asking for Help

We have recently learned about a stem cell treatment that could significantly improve Cyrus's quality of life. This treatment has the potential to:

• ️ Help him learn to speak

• ‍♂️ Support his ability to walk independently

Cyrus recently underwent spine and hip surgery, and while that was a major step forward, this stem cell treatment could be the final piece that helps him truly thrive.

Unfortunately, this course of treatment is not covered by insurance and is financially out of reach without your help. That’s why we’ve created this GoFundMe.

How You Can Help

If you feel moved to support Cyrus on his journey:

• Please consider donating—every single dollar helps.

• Share this page with friends, family, coworkers, church groups, gyms—anywhere you can.

• Keep Cyrus in your thoughts and prayers.

We believe in miracles—and we believe in the kindness of our community. Thank you for being part of Cyrus’s story. With your help, we can give him a real shot at walking, talking, and living a fuller life.

With heartfelt gratitude, - Justin & Taylor Shirley
