Sammy-Joe continues to need complex, round-the-clock care. His daily support includes oxygen and respiratory equipment, PEG feeding, seizure care, and help with every aspect of his personal care and safety.

These essential needs bring ongoing costs for our family. We are deeply grateful to everyone who has donated, shared our page, or supported the Friends of Sammy Joe Foundation. Your kindness makes a real difference and helps us keep meeting Sammy-Joe’s needs.

We recently received help with an oxygen invoice, and we are so thankful. The need for reliable oxygen and other essential care expenses continues, so fundraising remains important.

If you’re able to donate or share Sammy-Joe’s fundraising page, thank you. Every act of support helps us keep advocating for him and caring for him with the love and dignity he deserves.

With heartfelt thanks,

Maria and familyAn important update about Sammy-Joe

Over the past few months, Sammy-Joe’s circumstances have changed. We have seen a decline in his condition: he has been weaker through his trunk and has struggled to sit upright. He has also needed oxygen continuously during a chest infection, and he has continued to experience seizures.

These changes make his already complex daily care even more demanding. Sammy-Joe relies on support for his breathing, PEG feeding, personal care, transfers, and safety. His needs can change quickly, and we are doing everything we can to keep him comfortable and cared for.

We have not raised any money through fundraising for the past two months. That makes it difficult to meet the extra costs that come with caring for Sammy-Joe, including essential respiratory and medical needs.

If you can donate or share this page, it would mean a great deal to our family. Even helping spread Sammy-Joe’s story can make a difference. Thank you for standing beside him and helping us keep advocating for the care he needs.

With love and gratitude,

Maria and family
