If you know Tanner at all or have heard his story, you know just how amazing and strong he is. Tanner has a genetic condition called Marfan's that affects many different things, and he has been dealing with this all his life and has had surgery after surgery. We most recently found out that this condition is affecting his heart.

In just a few short weeks in September of this year, Tanner will have to undergo very complicated heart surgery. With this, there will be a pretty lengthy hospital stay in the ICU and a few months of recovery. During a portion of this time, we will both be out of work. After a lot of prayer and consideration, we decided to make this GoFundMe not only for financial help but also to ask for your prayers for us and our families as we go through this difficult time. As you can imagine, a life event like this not only takes a financial toll but an emotional one as well. If you’ve read this far, I just want to thank you for any help or support you can give. It means the absolute world to us to know we have such wonderful family and friends supporting us during this season. We pray that this is just another thing we can add to the testimony of what God has brought us through. We’ve already seen Him working in this and can’t wait to see what He does next.
