I have been blessed to know the Cobble family for 18 years and during that time, like all of us, they have had their ups and downs. Tim had to cope with cancer and at another time serious burns from an accident years ago. About 8 years ago his health was once again compromised with the need for a heart transplant. Around 7 years ago on this very day we were in prayer for Tim to make it home for Christmas. He did and since then has had numerous issues in addition to his heart that have frequently had him in and out of the hospital. As I write this he has had a stroke and had to go on kidney dialysis, still in the ICU and waiting to go home for Christmas.

This has taken a toll on the entire family in many ways over the years, not the least of which is the numerous 3 hour plus trips to Vanderbilt from their home and all associated costs. EACH trip, many throughout the year, consists of food, gas, and hotels and creates a burden on them aside from the medical which they have no control over.

With just one income this is a terrible burden and stressor with each trip aside from the medical aspect.

So I hope that you will prayerfully consider how you might be able to help the family out. The amount of $5,000 definitely doesn't cover medical expenses but hopefully we can ease their burden in the costs associated with travel and also maybe help with electric, water and food bills for a time.

If you can't help financially please pray for Tim's healing and to make it home for Christmas where he should be, with family. Caden (not in the picture) and Kylie need him there❤️❤️ He was blessed with a second chance especially for them.
