Help this family with medical bills and more

My beautiful cousin, Elaine, and her family are suffering through very hard times this year.  In January, her husband, Jeff, suffered a heart attack. Then, in April, due to the pandemic, both she and Jeff lost their jobs. In July, Elaine, got sick with Covid. In August, their teenage son, Brandon, lost his dog "Jack" after 14.5 years of being part of the family.  And now,  this month in October, doctor's have confirmed that their sweet teenage boy, Brandon, has a sarcoma (a type of cancer) in his stomach and he will need 9 months of treatment. The stress on this family has been tremendous and my heart goes out to them. Even more so, you can imagine the debt of medical bills that is continuing to rise and they currently have no prospect of full-time, permanent employment nor health insurance benefits anytime soon. 

     Please, please, if you can find it in your heart to help my cousin's family get through this with your prayers and your donations, it will be so appreciated. They have always been so generous and loving with their family, friends and community in Midland. It's our turn to help them if we can. The sooner you can send funds the better. Whatever amount you can send will be appreciated. Although they may never let you know that they've been having these difficulties, they are truly in need right now. 

May you be blessed tenfold for your generosity.
Thank you.
