<div>Dear family, friends, and community,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Most of you already know that while in town visiting family our dear Rowan (age 2) had a near-drowning accident. He has been in a medically induced coma in the pediatric intensive care unit since July 20th. The attentive medical team at Fairfax Hospital continue to monitor him closely. Encouragingly, they've noted some small improvements in his vital signs each day, although his path to recovery remains uncertain.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Maddie and Vince have been staying with Rowan at the hospital 24/7, monitoring him and advocating for his needs. Rowan's grandparents are caring for his brothers, Eli (age 4) and Paul (age 1), while Maddie and Vince are at the hospital. The family is overwhelmed with gratitude for the outpouring of love, prayers, and support from all of you. Your messages mean the world to them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>We are sharing this GoFundMe page to support the family's ongoing recovery from this terrible accident.</strong> On top of significant medical bills, Maddie and Vince are also losing a substantial amount of their annual income while they take indefinite unpaid leave to remain by Rowan's side. <strong>Please help us relieve some of their financial strain by donating any amount you can.</strong> Let's help them worry less about their expenses and instead focus their time and energy on Rowan and his two brothers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you again for your love and support, and please share with anyone who might want to lend a helping hand during this incredibly difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Love, Maddie and Vince's siblings
</div>
