Hello, and thank you for taking the time to read this.

I’m starting this GoFundMe on behalf of my friend Jonathan Jones and his family — his partner Jazmiah Pellerano, their daughter Serenity, and their soon-to-arrive baby boy.

Recently, Jonathan was diagnosed with blepharospasm in both eyes, a condition that causes uncontrollable muscle spasms and makes it extremely difficult — and unsafe — for him to drive or work. Driving was essential to his job, and now he’s unable to provide for his family in the way he always has.

This is an incredibly tough time for them, and I can’t imagine the stress they’re under as they prepare to welcome a new baby. Let’s come together as a community to support them.

Any donation, no matter the amount, will make a meaningful difference. And if you’re not in a place to give financially, your prayers and words of encouragement mean the world.

Thank you for your kindness and support.
