On January 8th, Taryn and Eric experienced every parent's worst nightmare—the loss of their sweet 2-year-old daughter, Helena, in a tragic accident. As young parents just starting their lives together, they are now facing unimaginable grief and the overwhelming challenges that come with it. The pain of losing Helena has all but broken them, and they are struggling to find a way forward for themselves and their 1-year-old daughter, Soryn, who has lost her best friend and continues to ask for her constantly. The heartbreak in their home is profound, and every day brings new difficulties as they try to process this loss.

In addition to the emotional toll, the family is facing significant financial strain. They will need to relocate due to the nature of the situation, which means losing their home and many of their belongings. The funds raised will help cover therapy for the family, day-to-day living expenses, and the costs associated with moving and starting over. Taryn and Eric are regular people who never imagined they would be in this position, and they are doing their best to care for Soryn while navigating this devastating time.

Any support—whether it’s a donation, kind words, or simply sharing this fundraiser—would mean the world to them. Your generosity and compassion can help this family begin to heal and rebuild after such a heartbreaking loss. Thank you for keeping them in your thoughts and for any help you can offer.
