<div>Dear friends, family, and compassionate supporters,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With heavy hearts, we share the devastating news that both <strong>Danny (12) and Henry (9) have been diagnosed with Batten's disease</strong>—a rare, neurodegenerative disorder with no cure. This diagnosis has shaken their family to the core, as they face the unimaginable reality of watching their beloved boys battle this relentless disease.

</div>

<div>Many of you know Dan and Kelly and the light they bring to all those around them. They’ve sacrificed so much for years, leaving their kids and home in Tennessee to come to Maryland for work, tirelessly caring for others. Despite their long hours and demanding schedules, they have always made sure their family comes first, filling their lives with love, care, and cherished moments.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Dan and Kelly are navigating profound grief while also trying to ensure their boys receive the best possible care, support, and love. The road ahead will include extensive medical treatments, therapies, and adjustments to their daily lives—all of which come with significant emotional and financial burdens.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>This fundraiser aims to <strong>ease the financial strain on the Max family</strong>, allowing them to focus on creating precious memories with their sons and providing the care and comfort Danny and Henry deserve. Funds raised will go toward medical expenses, specialized care, and any needs that arise as they navigate this challenging journey.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div><strong>Your donation, no matter the size, will make a meaningful difference.</strong> If you’re unable to contribute financially, please consider sharing this campaign and keeping this family in your thoughts and prayers.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Let’s come together to surround the Maxes with love, support, and hope during this incredibly difficult time.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With gratitude and heartfelt thanks,

</div>

<div>Puja Williams
