Hello, my name is Stephanie and I am raising money for my brother Todd. Very recently we found out that my bro needs open heart surgery. During a regular check up his doctors, she picked up on a heart palpitation. From there he found out from his cardiologist that there were some pretty big issues, that down the road, could be life threatening. The scary part is that our father and his father passed on from heart attacks and we are very blessed that this was caught, but this is scary at the same time.

The sticky part of this situation is that he lives alone back in Michigan, and will be out of work while he mends from his surgery on January 8th, 2025. This will be about 60 days before he can get back to life. Todd has been a single dad and currently being off work for this long will present even further stress, which he cannot afford. My hope is that our friends and my community can rally around him and support him in anyway we can so that he recovers with less stress and financial burden. During the 1st 30 days, he will not be able to drive so I am organizing presence of myself, family, friends, food and any other support needed.

If financial assistance isn't in your cards right now than please send good vibes, affirmations, prayers his way because that is where the true power of community lies and we don't have many to stand with us in this family so thank you. Let's make sure he knows he is not alone.

I know it is the holidays and I am sure many are already stressed themselves, but if you are able to help then great and if you are stressed currently, please find time to ground, take a breath and relax! :)

Much Love and light to all! We thank you.

The DeTar family
