Your son is sick, and we can't figure out what is wrong… No parent is ever ready to hear those words. On Tuesday, November 8th, Chelsea & Quinn did. Oakland Children's Hospital doctors were perplexed and admitted 10-year-old Quinni due to medically unexplained symptoms and after 21 days of high fevers. X-rays, cat scans, ultrasounds, IV fluids, antibiotics and blood work do not have them closer to an answer.

During his hospital stay, his lungs collapsed, and he is on oxygen. Quinni has also had a blood transfusion.

I have been asking myself, “ What can I do to help?” Hospitalization is a substantial financial commitment. We can all help by donating to offset expenses, Chelsea and Quinn being unable to work, and gas for the family to travel back and forth to the hospital; any little bit helps.

Chelsea and Quinn thank everyone for their love and support.

Helping friends and family is what life is all about.
