Friends & family,

Our sweet little Tessa (5 years old) was taken to the ER last weekend after sudden swelling and fatigue. What first looked like a severe case of Mono quickly turned into something far more serious. After being transferred to a children’s hospital in Orlando and undergoing a bone marrow biopsy, Tessa was diagnosed with Leukemia.

We are devastated by this news, but not without hope! We know that God is the author of her story and we fully trust Him to bring complete healing.

As my brother Rex and his wife Kelly face the unimaginable road ahead, we want to rally around them with love, prayers, and support. Rex recently poured his heart into starting a new business to provide for his family, a journey that already carried challenges. Now, with Tessa’s diagnosis, the weight has multiplied. On top of medical expenses, they are balancing essential living costs while caring for both Tessa and their two-year-old son, Maddox. Your generosity will help ease this burden, allowing Rex and Kelly to focus fully on their children instead of financial stress.

Kelly has not left Tessa’s side through the entire hospital stay, being a steady source of love and strength for her little girl. At the same time, Rex has been faithfully driving back and forth to Orlando as much as possible, balancing work, and caring for Maddox at night, making sure his world feels steady while Kelly remains in the hospital. They are carrying so much, and every bit of support helps them pour their energy where it matters most: into their children.

Together, we can lighten their load and lift them up!
