Wyatt Hudson's Brain Surgery; TSC
Donation protected
I was blessed to meet Wyatt's family a few years ago when his Mama began to work with me. She lights up a room with her positive energy and kindness. Her (and Wyatt's awesome Dada) will literally do ANYTHING to help ANYONE in need. Now is time for them to receive love and support from others as Wyatt faces a series of surgeries to remove tubers in his brain. We are hoping and praying that this surgery is successful and will make life for Wyatt and his family easier.
Wyatt was born with a rare genetic disease called Tuberous Sclerosis. TSC causes tumors to grow in his vital organs (brain, kidneys, eyes, heart, etc) and also causes seizures. Read more about this disease here....http://www.tsalliance.org/pages.aspx?content=2.
After trying almost all available meds without successful seizure control Wyatt's next step is surgery. This will be performed at NYU and Wyatt and his Mama will stay at the hospital for over a month. Watch a youtube vide featuring Wyatt's surgeon and the process here....https://youtu.be/qYHbyajzcXw. Meanwhile, Wyatt's big brother and Dada will stay at home in Pennsylvania because of school and work.
As you can imagine, supporting Mama in NYU and Dada in PA, along with the all the medical costs associated with this going to be SUPER DUPER EXPENSIVE. If we can help alleviate some of the financial stress, this will help the family cope with all the other stresses associated with this process. If enough money is raised, maybe Dada can come up for more than a week so that the entire family can be together.
Wyatt and his Mama travel to NY mid November for a week for presurgical clearances and them return a week later to begin the surgery process. Please everyone, skip your coffee, pack your lunch for work instead of buying, drink water instead of an energy drink and use the money you have saved to help this family. Every little bit will help.
Thank you all for listenting to Wyatt's story. Even if you cannot donate, please pray for this family in the coming months.
