On April 30,2026 my oldest daughter, Keri, will undergo a craniotomy to remove a tumor on her brain. It has recently doubled in size with inflammation and swelling making the surgery necessary. It is also entangled with blood vessels making bleeding and stroke a real possibility. Following surgery she will be in ICU then in a room in a few days if everything goes well. after that, she is facing weeks of recovery and may struggle with things like walking, speech, balance, or swallowing. As a mom, this is heartbreaking and terrifying. I am asking for help to ease the burdens so she can focus on healing. Donations will go to medical expenses, rehab needs, and food during hospital stay and after. I will be in charge of funds and will see that they are used appropriately.

If you are able to donate, share, or keep Keri in your thoughts and prayers, it would mean so much. I can't take this away from her, so I am doing the only thing I can---asking for help. Thank you from the bottom of this mom's heart. Renee Tallant
