Stephen & Katie Dorn, Maverick's Story

Donation protected

On 01/12/2022 the unthinkable has touched the lives of the Dorn Family.

Family was requested to pick baby Maverick, 4.5 months old and the newest addition to the family up from daycare. It was reported that he was not feeling well at the daycare. He was hospitalized that day at Childrens Hospital Saint Paul in the ICU and has been there since. His injuries are highly suggestive of Shaken Baby Syndrome and he has suffered significant trauma, including a brain bleed.

I ask that you support the Dorn family in this very difficult and traumatic time in their lives. Funding will be used towards hospital bills and ongoing medical support for baby Maverick, which may be lifelong.
