Justin and Stephanie Faulkner welcomed their son, Ian, into the world on May 3rd. Affectionately called Mighty Mouse by his parents, Ian was diagnosed with Zellweger Syndrome shortly after birth and has been in the NICU ever since. This rare diagnosis has brought many challenges, and the family is facing an uncertain road ahead as they navigate Ian’s care and the emotional toll of his condition.

With Justin needing to return to work, the family is balancing hospital visits, mounting medical bills, and the everyday expenses that come with having a newborn in intensive care. Any support will help ease the financial burden so they can focus on spending precious time with Ian and making sure he receives the best care possible.

lan who is currently presenting with liver dysfunction and prolonged jaundice as well as other complications has been transferred to UVA in Charlottesville.

The Faulkners are deeply grateful for any help, whether it’s a donation or simply keeping Ian, his care team, and their family in your thoughts and prayers. Your support means the world to them as they face each day with hope and strength for Mighty Mouse’s journey.
