Paul Garris, Jr. is the one who made me an aunt at the age of 5. Paul is a loving husband to his wife Shannon and a devoted father to his three children, Tyler 21, Olivia 15, and Hailey 13, who are affected by his illness. Paul is always one to make you laugh and has a huge heart. My nephew is currently facing a very difficult health journey. He has been extremely sick, requiring multiple surgeries, and now relies on a feeding tube for his nutrition. Watching him go through so much at such a young age has been heartbreaking for our entire family.

The medical bills are piling up quickly, and the costs of his ongoing care are more than we can manage alone. Every day brings new challenges, but also hope that with the right treatment and support, he can recover and regain his strength. We want to make sure he has access to the best care possible without the added stress of financial worries, so he can focus on being there for his children.

We are so grateful for any support you can give during this difficult time. Your kindness means the world to our family. If you are able to donate or share this fundraiser, it would make a tremendous difference for my nephew, his children, and all of us who love him. Thank you for being part of our community and for helping us through this journey.
