About eight years ago, many of you generously helped our daughter Jenni walk through brain surgery for a non-malignant but dangerous tumor near her brain stem. The surgery was successful, the tumor was significantly reduced, and with your help she and her husband Thomas were able to move forward with their lives and work. We were all immensely grateful!

Now we're back, because so is the tumor, or at least, so is a new cyst on the tumor that is causing many of the same symptoms as the last time, and will also need to be surgically addressed. Jenni is scheduled for another brain surgery on December 4, 2025. Thankfully, they have reasonably good insurance, but there are so many additional expenses: lost work, significant co-pays and co-insurance, extra transportation, lodging, and meal expense, supplies and medicine not covered by insurance, and probably more we haven't thought of yet.

Jenni, Thomas, their three amazing boys, and we would be deeply grateful if you could help again with these additional expenses. Help from friends and family was so amazing last time around - both the financial gifts and all the encouraging words were life-giving! Thank you in advance for your help and encouragement this time, also - again we're grateful!
