Last Friday, Jenna's husband, Tyler, suffered a ruptured brain aneurysm. She found him unresponsive at home, and he was life-flighted to the hospital in Gainesville. In just three days, Tyler has undergone two lifesaving brain surgeries—first to coil the aneurysm, and then another the following day when he began bleeding again in a different area of his brain. During that second surgery, part of his skull had to be removed to allow his brain to swell without causing further damage.
At this time, his prognosis is unclear, and it's unknown what level of recovery or normalcy he may regain. Jenna is a school nurse, and Tyler provided the majority of the family’s income. They have four young children, and she is currently trying to balance caring for them while traveling an hour and a half each way to be by Tyler’s side.
From the Collum family:
"We have been overwhelmed by the love, prayers, and support from our family and friends. We truly believe God has already answered so many prayers, and we are continuing to trust Him completely as Tyler fights for his life. Our number one request is that people would flood heaven with prayer on Tyler’s behalf. And if you are in a position to also help financially, we would be forever grateful as we focus on Tyler’s healing and caring for our children during this unimaginable time."
