Support Our Son's Stroke Recovery Journey

Donation protected
On February 25th, our healthy 16-year-old son, Johnny, suffered a hemorrhagic stroke—an extremely rare event, with only 800 reported cases in children under 18 nationwide. In an instant, our world was turned upside down. In the face of fear and uncertainty, we turned to prayer, holding on to hope for his recovery and strength.

Johnny spent 13 days in the hospital and is now home, beginning his journey to recovery. This is a new and challenging experience for all of us, and we’re adjusting as best we can. Thankfully, his motor skills remain intact, though he is experiencing some short-term memory and vision impairments, which doctors expect to improve in the coming months.

We ask for your continued prayers for his healing and strength.

We are profoundly grateful to the entire medical team at Shands Children’s Hospital for their exceptional care and support.

As we navigate this difficult time, we are also facing significant medical expenses. Any support you can provide would mean the world to us. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and prayers.
