This GoFundMe has been organized by Krystal's siblings - Danna Kyritz (sister), Michelle Silvestri (sister), Patricia Marinco (sister), Jimmy Brue (brother), along with sisters-in-law Lauren Brue and Heather Brue and brothers-in-law Tom Silvestri, Marc Marinco and John Kyritz in loving support of the Butler family.

The Butler family is facing an unimaginable time as they care for their baby girl, Daniella. Daniella became ill from a virus that unfortunately affected her heart, leading to endocarditis. The infection caused damage to three of her four heart valves, and her aortic valve will need to be replaced along with VSD closure and a tricupsid valve repair.

Daniella is currently being treated at Mount Sinai, where she is receiving the best possible care in the Pediatric Cardiac Intensive Care Unit. In the next day or two, she will undergo open heart surgery, followed by a very long and difficult recovery. Krystal and Anthony will be spending their days in New York by Daniella’s side as she fights through this critical stage.

As they focus on Daniella’s care, they are also navigating the emotional toll this has taken on their family. At home, their two daughters, Victoria and Angelina, are going through this traumatic time as well. missing their parents and worrying about their baby sister while everything feels uncertain.

So many people have reached out asking how they can help, and this GoFundMe was created to give everyone an opportunity to support the Butler family in whatever way feels comfortable.

At this time, the family needs space to focus on their little family and on Daniella’s recovery. They will do their very best to keep everyone updated as they are able. Thank you for your prayers, kindness, and continued support.
