A Husband Fighting for His Life.

A Wife Fighting to Be By His Side.

Bryan’s life changed in an instant. What began as a routine illness quickly spiraled into a life-threatening battle, leaving him in a medically induced coma and relying on ECMO – a last-resort life support machine acting as a bridge to recovery or, possibly, a life-saving lung transplant.

As Bryan faces the fight of his life, his wife, Gina, is doing everything she can to stay by his side while also struggling to maintain their family home.

Why We Need Your Help

Bryan’s journey is far from over. Whether he recovers or faces a transplant, the road ahead is long and uncertain. He will need extensive medical care, including a long-term stay in a rehab facility to relearn even the most basic skills, like walking.

Meanwhile, Gina is torn between being with Bryan during his most critical moments and working to keep their household afloat.

The emotional and financial burden is overwhelming. The cost of lodging, travel, daily expenses, and mounting medical bills is more than Gina can manage alone.

Your Generosity Will Help With:



Lodging and Travel Expenses: Allowing Gina to stay close to Bryan, no matter where his medical journey takes him.

Daily Living Costs: Helping Gina afford meals and essentials while balancing work and being with Bryan.

Mounting Medical Bills: Covering the overwhelming expenses of ECMO, potential transplant, and long-term rehabilitation.
