Support Donnie's Fight Against Brain Cysts and Tourette's

Donation protected
Hello everyone.. This GoFundMe page has been created for our son and family. We have been dealing with a lot of medical issues with one of our 9-year-old twins. We went from having a perfectly healthy child one day to having him diagnosed with 2 brain cysts, which now have to be closely monitored, and Motor Tourette syndrome. This was all sudden; we didn’t have any warning signs. Our little Donnie has been in and out of the hospital for the last 2 months, between uncontrollable muscle spasms and panic attacks due to not being able to control his spasms; his breathing pattern changes and causes him to stop breathing. This new ordeal has brought a lot of hardship to our family. We have had to give up jobs and quit jobs in order to be home and take care of him. We have four children that mean the world to us. We are doing our best to make ends meet, but our insurance does not cover all Donnie’s medications and some of his services. All these new events have also taken a toll on him mentally and physically, as well as the family as a whole. We are doing everything we can to keep him busy and with a positive attitude; he is only 9 years old. We have exhausted all our resources. If you can help us out, we would be beyond grateful.
