Growing up in a small town means you get to know everyone else living in that small town. Justin and Amanda (then Dowdy) Frankford and I grew up in the small town of Carlinville, Illinois.  

These two have lived the fairytale life of growing up, marrying your high school sweet heart and finally becoming parents to a beautiful baby girl, Braylee. 

Braylee is 2, almost 3 months old . She was recently diagnosed with a very rare condidtion called Biliary Atresia. Over the next several months, this beautiful baby will have to undergo surgery, and her parents will have to monitor her closely. Depending on how the surgery goes, she may then have a clean bill of health, or face a liver transplant down the road. 

This has been pressing heavily on my heart as a new mother myself. I'm asking all of you to band together and help raise money for this family as they endure this scary ordeal. Even the smallest amount helps. 

Thank you so much for your consideration in helping this family. I kow Justin and Amanda appreciate anything you can give, even if it is just a smile.
