Update on Zoie: July 23rd, 2025- So yesterday I got the call from Pediatric GI they have her Scheduled Oct 1st..
Hello my name is Rebel Hernandez. I am Brianna Halford(16) and Zoie Halford(14) Mother. I am starting this gofundme, because we have had alot of things happening with both of these gi
rls's health and we have a long journey ahead of us and I am struggling with money for everything between the bills which take all, but then we are having to go back and forth to Oklahoma City alot for Miss Zoie and back and forth to Tulsa for Miss Brianna.
This all very first started back in November 2024 when Zoie hit her knee horsing around with her siblings.
February 13th, 2025 Zoie had her first knee surgery on her left knee. After that her right knee started swelling so they done MRI, X-rays and lots and lots of blood work.
May 1st, 2025 Zoie had her second knee surgery on her right knee. They drained an ton of fluid off both knees, repaired her meniscus in both knees, as well as her LCL in both knees.
We were referred to Dr. Sarah Taber @ the OU Children Hospital in Oklahoma City back in March 2025.
July 17th, 2025 we finally got a few answers, and 3 more Pediatric Doctors on top of the 3 Doctors Miss Zoie already has. She now has 4 Doctors in OKC, 1 in Owasso, and 1 in Barnsdall.
Then May 28th, 2025 there was Brianna causing me to almost have a heart attack. I received a phone call no Mother ever wants to get. I answer my phone Yes Brianna, the other end is a Man's voice saying is this Brianna's mother, my name is Jacob I'm with the Bartlesville EMS. I immediately panicked my heart dropped, he informs me my daughter was needing to be treated due to a seizure which caused her to split her head open, I said yes he assured that she was okay but they were going to take her to the hospital. I get to the hospital and I'm greeted by Jacob and informed that she had a second seizure on the way to the hospital and that they did lose her, I was freaking they were able to get her back (she remembers nothing at all about it). She was with her friend at Bartlesville Walmart when she said she felt strange and immediately started seizing, I'm so so thankful that her 3 friends were there to try to break her fall and be there with her. We have delt with seizures before from Miss Zoie at 6 weeks old, 6 months old, and 2 years old so we know they are serious.
We still have No answers for what has caused Brianna to have seizures. We have had CT's, MRI's, X-rays, lots of blood work, and even had to wear a heart monitor.
We now have been Referred to Dr. Siegler in Tulsa.
Brianna also recently got her Braces on her teeth which at the time I thought I could afford $191/month.
But with insurance not covering them at all, and I am her only parent paying for her stuff I am struggling bad. I wouldn't usually even do this but I am at a loss on how to afford everything.
Zoie's shots she will have to take everything 2 weeks are $4,100 before insurance we are waiting on them to see if they will cover it. I am trying to be Super Mom but I am a mother of 4. I work at Dollar General I dont make alot but I am trying. If you could help anything helps.
Tangelo Orthodontics is where I pay her payment for braces I could really use help with those, gas and stuff for the kids, school is starting soon and I have no idea how I am going to afford school stuff. I have Brianna is going into 11th Grade, Zoie going into 8th Grade, Easton going into 6th Grade, and Bentyn going into 5th Grade. Im just needing help if anyone could help I would appreciate it so so much.
Thanks so much,
