Help June Mepham Fight Acute Striatal,basal ganglia necrosis

Hi, my name is Jonathan Mepham, and I’m writing this with a heavy heart as our family faces the hardest battle we've ever known.

Our sweet, joyful daughter, June, was recently struck by a devastating medical crisis. What started as a simple virus — the same one that hospitalized our son Joseph with pneumonia — turned into something much more serious for June. Her immune system responded aggressively, leading to a rare and terrifying condition called Acute Disseminated Encephalomyelitis (ADEM), causing severe swelling in her brain. This has led to a new diagnoses called Acute striatal necrosis. Which is necrosis of her brain in the basal ganglia area.

June is now fighting for her recovery at Childrens hospital in milwaukee. She is currently unable to move on command

Her movement is erratic and uncoordinated she is unable to speak or eat — trapped inside her body while the pressure and swelling is starting to subside she is showing severe damage to her brain with necrosis.

We are heartbroken. We miss her bright smile, her sweet voice, and her endless energy. Every minute feels like a lifetime as we pray and hope for signs of healing.

We are asking for your help. The road ahead for June will be long and uncertain — filled with mounting medical bills, ongoing therapies, and the need for specialized care. Any support you can offer, whether through a donation, a prayer, or simply by sharing June’s story, would mean more than we could ever express.

Please stand with us as we fight alongside our little girl. June is strong, but she needs all of us to be strong for her now.

Thank you for being part of her fight. Thank you for believing in miracles with us.
