Jacob Martin and Elizabeth are my beloved grandson and his partner, and right now, their family is facing an incredibly difficult time. Their young daughter, Marilyn—my great granddaughter—was recently bitten by a dog. The injury was serious enough that she needed surgery and had to be hospitalized. As you can imagine, this has been a frightening and overwhelming experience for all of us, especially for Jacob, Elizabeth, and their family as they focus on Marilyn’s recovery.

The medical bills from Marilyn’s surgery and hospital stay are adding up quickly. Jacob and Elizabeth are doing everything they can to support their daughter, but the costs are more than the family can manage alone. That’s why I’m reaching out to our community for help. Every dollar raised will go directly toward covering Marilyn’s medical expenses, easing the financial burden so Jacob and Elizabeth can focus on what matters most—helping their daughter heal and keeping their family strong.

I want to thank you in advance for your kindness and support. Any amount you can give will make a real difference for Jacob, Elizabeth, Marilyn, and our entire family. Your generosity means the world to us, and we are deeply grateful for your help during this challenging time.
