I am reaching out for help to support Carole, a loving mother who was recently diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia and is also legally blind. She recently lost her husband of 69 years, and this loss has made her condition worse. As her health has progressed, she now requires around-the-clock care to remain safe, comfortable, and cared for with dignity. At the moment, she only has the assistance of a home health aide for 8 hours a day and 5 hours on Sundays. Outside of those hours, her two devoted daughters work tirelessly to care for her themselves while also balancing jobs, responsibilities, and the emotional toll that comes with watching a parent’s health decline. 
<br>
<br>
 Unfortunately, 24-hour care is incredibly expensive, and the costs are currently being paid entirely out of pocket. The financial burden has become overwhelming, but her daughters remain committed to giving their mother the compassionate care she deserves. Every contribution will go directly toward expanding her care so she can receive the full-time support she urgently needs. Most importantly, we want to help this family spend less time worrying about financial stress and more time focusing on Carole’s comfort, safety, and quality of life. 
<br>
<br>
 We are asking for any support you can give — whether through a donation or simply sharing this page. Thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support during this difficult time.

Help Carole Receive Full-Time Care

<div>Our daughter Emsley is eight years old and lives with spastic quadriplegic cerebral palsy. She is the sweetest girl and brings joy to everyone who meets her. But every day she faces challenges most children never have to think about.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Over the past year, Emsley’s dystonia, painful, involuntary muscle contractions, has significantly increased. We have worked closely with her medical team and have exhausted the traditional treatment options available through standard medical care. Despite medications and therapies, her dystonia continues to make everyday life harder for her.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are now pursuing a new option that gives us hope: Muse stem cell therapy. These stem cells have shown promising results in helping reduce dystonia and improving motor function in some patients. The treatment is currently not FDA-approved in the United States, which means we must travel to Mexico for Emsley to receive it.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our hope is that these treatments could help reduce Emsley’s dystonia and potentially give her new abilities—such as improved head control, better hand function, and possibly even the ability to speak. Even small gains could dramatically improve her comfort, independence, and quality of life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our goal is for Emsley to receive 4–6 treatments. Each treatment costs approximately $14,000, and with travel expenses, our estimated total is about $20,000 per treatment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are hoping to take Emsley for her first treatment on July 13, but we need $10,000 down soon to secure her appointment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Right now, our immediate goal is simply to get her through the first treatment, and then we will continue to take the journey one step at a time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you feel led to support Emsley, whether through donating, sharing this page, or keeping her in your prayers we are incredibly grateful. Every share helps spread her story, and every prayer means the world to our family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for loving our girl and believing in hope for her future. 
</div>

<div>Dear friends and family,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As many of you know, my best friend Jamie was recently diagnosed with breast cancer at just 35 years old. This devastating news comes just months after she welcomed her baby in February, and she also has a 7-year-old son. Jamie is facing a challenging journey ahead, including a double mastectomy, chemotherapy, possible radiation, and extensive recovery and reconstruction surgeries.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Her doctors have advised that the next few months will be incredibly tough. Jamie will need to focus on her recovery, which means resting every day. While her husband will be taking time off work to care for her and their children, the financial burden will still be significant. With medical bills, travel expenses for doctor visits, money for take out meals since it’ll be difficult for Jamie to cook and daily needs for their family, money will be tight.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In addition to hospital expenses, there are many other costs to consider, such as groceries, diapers for the baby, supplies for their rescue animals, and special items like mitts and foot warmers to help prevent neuropathy during chemotherapy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We want to ease some of this financial stress so Jamie can concentrate on her fight against cancer and her recovery. Our goal is to raise $5,000 to help cover these essential expenses and support her family during this difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your support, love, and prayers for Jamie and her family during this challenging time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With gratitude,
</div>
<div>Kaitlyn McGrady

<div>The funeral services for Payton Renee Himo were unbelievable. Burns Funeral Home did such a wonderful job that it's really hard to express the gratitude. If you were not able to make the services you can watch it online on Burns Funeral Home's Facebook page. There has been such an outpouring of love to Matilda that she is having a hard time just taking it all in. I have never seen someone so grateful for all that she has, even in this terrible time in her life. To everyone that has given, a HUGE thank you! If you haven't given, but can, please consider doing so. There is so much to be done yet, to get Matilda's life back to somewhat normal. God Bless all of you and remember to live each day like it was your last.
</div>

<div>Ali was a healthy, happy little girl until everything changed in an instant. What started as the flu quickly turned into rhabdomyolysis and sudden cardiac arrest. After 18 minutes without oxygen, Ali was placed on ECMO to save her life. She survived but not without devastating consequences.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The lack of oxygen caused a severe anoxic brain injury, leaving Ali with spastic quadriplegia, inability to speak, and the need for a feeding tube. Overnight, our world changed forever. Ali is here because she fought but survival came at a heartbreaking cost.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Donations will go directly toward Ali’s ongoing medical care and therapies, including intensive physical, occupational, and speech therapy, adaptive equipment, alternative and regenerative treatments, medical travel, and daily care needs not covered by insurance. Every dollar helps us give Ali the best chance at comfort, healing, and quality of life.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for standing with Ali and our family. Your support means more than words can ever express.

<div>**Help Maria in Her Fight Against Cancer**
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Dear Friends, Family, and Kind Strangers,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am reaching out to you today on behalf of one my best friends Maria who is currently battling colon cancer. She is a remarkable woman who has dedicated her life to helping others, first as a paralegal for 30 years, and more recently as a flight attendant for JetBlue. Unfortunately, due to her ongoing health struggles, she is now unable to work and needs our support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In August 2021, Maria was diagnosed with colon cancer. She bravely underwent surgery and, after a week in the hospital, returned to work within a month, determined to continue her life as normally as possible. However, the cancer returned in August 2022, leading to another surgery and a longer hospital stay of 2 1/2 weeks, followed by six months of chemotherapy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In August 2023, Maria faced yet another diagnosis of colon cancer. She underwent surgery in November and began chemotherapy again in February 2024, requiring a port placed inside her body for treatment every two weeks. Despite these hardships, She has shown incredible resilience and strength.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As of November 2024, she will have been out of work for a year. Additionally, in September 2024, she needs ambulatory surgery to place a stent to relieve the pain caused by a swollen kidney due to a tumor pressing on her arteries and nerves.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>While her insurance covers a portion of her medical bills, there are significant out-of-pocket expenses that she is struggling to meet. Her long-term disability income is $3,588 a month, but her rent alone is $2,650. With additional monthly expenses such as utilities, cell phone, cable, and home insurance, not to mention food and transportation to medical appointments, She is facing a financial crisis.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are seeking your generosity to help alleviate the financial burden on Maria during this challenging time. Any contribution, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in her life and allow her to focus on her health and recovery.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for taking the time to read her story. Your support, whether through a donation or by sharing this campaign, means the world to us.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>With heartfelt gratitude,
</div>
<div><br />

</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are absolutely overwhelmed with the amount of support we are receiving so far to help with our mom’s medical and personal expenses. We are beyond grateful and can not be more thankful for your love and support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>You all are such a blessing.

Support Maria's Battle Against Colon Cancer

<div>Emmett was born 9/20/23 with severe Ebstein’s Anomaly. His first open-heart surgery was at 5 weeks old, where a cone procedure failed, leading to the Starnes Procedure and BT Shunt, making him a single-ventricle kiddo. He was later diagnosed with Abernethy Malformation, a rare liver condition. After significant challenges, he was weaned off medications and oxygen support and made his way to TCU status! He had a pre-Glenn cath procedure and then the Glenn procedure on April 1, 2024. Although the surgery went well, he faced setbacks, including breathing issues that required intubation. He never truly recovered and had a cath lab procedure on April 23, 2024 to coil collateral vessels and he slowly made progress. Eventually though Emmett’s respiratory status deteriorated and he is back on a bi-pap interface on the ventilator. He has more collateral vessels that need coiled and a very small airway. The team believes at this time a transfer to Pittsburgh Children’s would be best for him. Pittsburgh has a specialist in Ebstein's anomaly who created the cone procedure.
</div>
<div>On 6/20/24 Emmett was officially accepted by a physician in Pittsburgh. Pittsburgh Children's Hospital is one of the only hospitals in America who will accept Emmett as a 1-ventricle kiddo with intentions of doing a cone-procedure, which would make him a double-ventricle kid again! If the cone-procedure is successful this could mean Emmett may never need a heart transplant. On 6/28/24 everything was officially approved and the transfer was in the hands of Pittsburgh. We were told on 7/1/24 that Pittsburgh would be reaching out to advise us when they will transport Emmett. On 7/2/24 Pittsburgh had a meeting and decided that despite everything being approved, that they no longer choose to work with Emmett’s insurance. We were told previously this would not be an issue, as they have worked with Illinois Medicaid before. Emmett has Meridian (Illinois Medicaid) and our only hope is to reapply and pray Emmett qualifies for a program that helps get kids the insurance they need and that Emmett can get an insurance Pittsburgh will work with, this process can take anywhere around 6 weeks! On 7/3/24 we have started the process with insurance but this takes time that Emmett doesn’t have!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Emmett needs to get to Pittsburgh, if he stays a 1-ventricle kid, Emmett will need a transplant, which for him is nearly impossible to have approved, due to his liver and lung issues. If Emmett stays in St. Louis and continues down this road of a transplant, he will end up on hospice and we can’t say goodbye to our sweet boy. Pittsburgh is Emmett’s only hope. Emmett deserves this procedure, he deserves to live many years to come. Please help us get our boy the life-saving care in Pittsburgh that he deserves. Any money used from this fundraiser will be used towards getting Emmett to Pittsburgh and getting him the cone-procedure to save his life. A medical flight equipped for Emmett with the special equipment and staff he needs will be at minimum $20,000 should insurance deny him. This will not include any additional charges, hospital stay, travel expenses, etc. truly anything helps! 
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you so much for all your support and reading about our sweet guy!To follow his journey check out Emmett’s Cardiac Quest on Facebook❤️

<div>Dear Friends,
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are reaching out to you today with heavy hearts to share the story of Julie, a brave 3-year-old girl who has recently been diagnosed with cancer. Julie's parents, Nikki and Mike, are facing a long and difficult road ahead as they navigate their daughter's treatment and care.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Julie, this smart, active, beautiful little being, is just starting her battle of this terrible disease. She is a Warrior dressed as a Princess with the most amazing determination.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It goes without saying that this will not only be emotionally challenging for Mike, Nikki, Julie and Julie's 1 year-old sister Rosie but also financially burdensome for the family.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your generosity, no matter how big or small, can make a significant difference in Julie's fight against cancer.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your donation will help cover the costs of medical expenses, countless trips to the children's hospital for treatments and appointments, and other unforeseen expenses as they navigate this battle.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>More importantly, your support will bring hope and strength to Julie and her family.

<div>On Saturday, April 6th, our dear friends Tina and Rob Ryan’s home caught fire. Tina’s mother, Marilyn, was in the home when the fire broke out and is currently in critical condition in SIUH’s Burn Unit. She is not doing well, all prayers for her recovery are appreciated.

</div>
<div>Thank you to all who have reached out to see how they can support this beautiful family, we are creating this page for just that.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>

Tina, Rob and their whole family are overwhelmed by the outpouring of love and support in the wake of this tragedy.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
