Stand by Xander: Critical Care Required

My name is LaShonda Phillips. I'm coming on behalf of my baby sister Marylin Waldrup. Her only grandson, Xander, is critically ill right now with a diagnosis of Puffy Potts Tumor from a sinus infection. Xander is a 7-year-old sweet, happy-go-lucky, handsome little boy, the child of the late LaRaja Nicholas. LaRaja passed on September 23, 2020, from complications of COVID. She left behind her baby boy, Xander, whom my sister Marylin was obligated to raise with love and care.

Xander underwent surgery on July 10, 2025, which was his deceased mother's birthday, for a mass on his brain. The surgery seemed to have gone well, but on July 16, 2025, my sister was informed that Xander has fluid on his brain, which is Puffy Potts Tumor that causes his forehead to swell and causes lots of pain for his little body.

I'm asking in love for Marylin and Xander that we come together as a village to help with medical expenses, food, travel, and loss of wages for Marylin while she's caring for Xander under these unfortunate circumstances, to care for her grandson whom she loves so very much.

Anything you find in your heart to donate is greatly appreciated. My prayers are that it's out of love and the blessings are returned to you tenfold in Jesus' holy name.

Sincerely,

LaShonda Phillips on behalf of Marylin and Xander....
