Hello, we are Chris and Tori, and we are Braxton’s parents. Our entire family is heartbroken over what has happened to our precious 3-month-old, Braxton Musselman. On January 13, 2026, Braxton suffered a severe brain injury and a ruptured pupil. The brain injury required two brain surgery’s with over 300mls of blood needing to be drained. The brain injury and swelling is so severe they’ve had to remove the right half of his skull to take pressure off. After over a week of fighting in the ICU he has since had his breathing tube removed and has been removed from sedation. The injuries have required him to be on multiple anti seizure meds and originally had no use or movement of his left side due to the damage of the right side brain. He has since regained very minimal movement to the left extremities The doctors have been honest with us: the road ahead will be long, uncertain, and incredibly expensive. Braxton faces potential lifelong challenges, including neurological issues, possible seizures, vision problems, physical therapy, multiple surgeries, specialized equipment, and ongoing medical care that our family simply cannot afford on our own. We are asking for your help to give this innocent little boy the very best chance possible. Every dollar raised will go directly toward: • Hospital bills and ICU stay • Future surgeries and procedures • Rehabilitation and therapies • Adaptive equipment and home modifications • Travel and lodging costs for family to be by his side • Lost wages due to time off of work to be at the hospital • professional dog training to have our 7 month old cane corso with the help of Max Tran at Maximo’s Kennel and Rich with Akina K9 training to become a service dog to detect seizures. Braxton is a beautiful, sweet baby who deserves every opportunity to heal, grow, and thrive despite what has happened to him. Your support – whether it’s a donation, sharing this page, or just sending prayers – means more to us than words can express. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for reading Braxton’s story and for any help you can give. We will post regular updates here so you can follow his progress. With love and gratitude, From Tori, Chris, Braxton, and family #braxtonthebrave
