​ A Request for Support for Eeliana and Family

​We are reaching out to our community today with a heavy heart and a sincere request for support. Our sweet daughter, Eeliana, will be unexpectedly admitted to the hospital soon due to Chronic constipation causing a blockage in the Large intestine and the need for an Endoscopy for futher testing of Celiac Disease and other GI Diseases. What started out with us going for an autism diagnosis has ended with 5 new specialists, a scary procedure needing to be done, and a hospital stay we didnt ever see coming.

​She is being so brave, and we are praying for a smooth and quick recovery. Right now, our focus is entirely on her, and we are staying by her side, during her stay wen will also be by her side the whole time.

​This is where we need your help.

​Because we are dedicated to being here for Eeliana during her hospitalization and initial recovery, both of us will lose out on a day or two of essential wages. This unexpected loss of pay will make it difficult to cover immediate needs like:

​ Essential Household Bills: Covering our rent/mortgage and utilities that were dependent on those missing paychecks.

​ Hospital Food: Small but constant costs that add up quickly while we are there.

​We are humbly asking for any small amount to help bridge this gap so we can focus 100% on Eeliana's healing without worrying about falling behind at home. Our goal is to raise $2,000 to cover these immediate needs.

​If you can help we would greatly appreciate it.

​If you can't donate, the best thing you can do is SHARE THIS POST—it means the world to us.

​Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for every prayer, every share, and every dollar.

We will keep you all updated on Eeliana's progress, which hospital we will be at, and exact date/time whether it will be November 4th or November 11th for procedure day and that will start the hospitalization process, we're looking at approximately 4 days inpatient, and could take up to 1 week to get the biopsy results back.

​With love and gratitude,

​Mike, Hailey and Eeliana VanDehey

UPDATE: Eeliana will be admitted November 10, 2025 at 9am for approximately 3 days. Then biopsy is scheduled for December 2, 2025 at 9:30am. Family and Friends if toud like to visit please let us know and we will getnyou the room number after we've checked in.
