We are raising funds for the Winquist Family. Alex and Grace Winquist welcomed baby boy Braxton Joshua Winquist on 2/6/26 weighing 3lbs 6oz.

Throughout pregnancy and birth they knew Braxton had a little bit of extra fluid in his brain ventricules, but did not have answers for why. Recently, they received a diagnosis of lissencephaly(smooth brain), which means his brain developed differently than expected. It’s a very rare brain disorder that will cause seizures, developmental delays, and a very short life expectancy.

Right now, Braxton is stable, growing, and continuing to show them just how resilient and strong he is. They taking things one day at a time, learning as they go, and leaning heavily on their faith and family.

All funds will go to travel expenses and Braxtons medical needs.
