Michael, Kayla, and their 1-year-old daughter Bella are facing every parent's nightmare. Bella was taken to the hospital for what seemed like a random sickness. Doctors initially performed surgery believing they were removing an infection, but during that process they discovered that Bella has leukemia. 
<br>
<br>
 Everything changed immediately. Bella was admitted to the hospital right away, had a central treatment line placed, and has now started chemotherapy. Since then, Michael and Kayla have been practically living at the hospital, staying by Bella's side as she goes through treatment. 
<br>
<br>
 Being there for their daughter has meant time away from work, while expenses continue to grow. This fundraiser is to help ease that burden so Michael and Kayla can focus on caring for Bella instead of worrying about how to keep up with everything at home. 
<br>
<br>
 Donations will help cover medical expenses, food, and household bills, and most importantly, give Bella's parents the freedom to spend this time with her during treatment instead of feeling forced to work. 
<br>
<br>
 If you are able to give, please consider supporting Michael and his family during this incredibly difficult time. Every donation and share can help them stay focused on what matters most right now: being with Bella.

<div>Help Baby Tatum Fight for Healing
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On what should have been an ordinary Saturday, Kirsten and Nate rushed their sweet baby boy, Tatum, to the emergency room because he was in severe pain. They were initially told it was constipation, but as the day went on, Tatum’s condition continued to worsen. Trusting a mother’s instinct, they made the decision to take him to East Tennessee Children’s Hospital in Knoxville for further evaluation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>After multiple tests, doctors discovered a 7-centimeter mass in Tatum’s pelvic area pressing against his bladder. Because of the mass, Tatum has been unable to urinate or have a bowel movement on his own and has been enduring an unimaginable amount of pain.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The surgical and radiology teams believe the mass is likely neuroblastoma, a type of childhood cancer. While they remain hopeful, they are waiting for a biopsy and additional testing to determine exactly what the mass is and the best course of treatment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>No parent is ever prepared to hear words like these.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As Kirsten and Nate focus every ounce of their energy on being by Tatum’s side, they are also facing the financial burden that comes with a prolonged hospital stay. Nate does not receive paid leave from work, and while Kirsten has some paid time off available, those benefits will eventually run out. Between lost income, medical expenses, travel to and from Knoxville, meals, and everyday household bills, the financial strain is quickly becoming overwhelming.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you know this family, you know they would never ask for help unless they truly needed it. They are loving, hardworking parents who are simply trying to be present for their little boy during the most difficult season of their lives.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are asking for your support in any way you can. Whether you are able to donate or simply share this fundraiser, every act of kindness makes a difference. Most importantly, we ask that you continue praying for Tatum and for healing, comfort, wisdom for his medical team, and that his biopsy brings the best possible news.

Support baby Tatum & his parents through this difficult time

<div>Description: Our sweet friends recently received news no parent ever expects to hear: <strong>their precious 6-month-old daughter, Marigold, has been diagnosed with retinoblastoma, a rare form of eye cancer.</strong> In an instant, their lives became filled with specialist appointments, medical testing, treatment decisions, travel, and the emotional weight of caring for a baby facing such a serious diagnosis.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As they focus on giving Marigold the very best care and surrounding her with love, we want to come alongside them in a practical way. <strong>We're raising funds to help ease the financial burden of medical expenses, travel costs, lodging, lost income from time away from work, and the many unexpected expenses that come with caring for a child undergoing treatment.</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>They have been a blessing to so many—always willing to pray for others, offer encouragement, lend a helping hand, and faithfully serve wherever God has called them. Their lives are a testament to God's grace, and they have continually poured themselves out for their family, friends, church, and community. If you know this family, you know their faith, kindness, and love for others! Now it's our turn to support them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We believe God is walking with Marigold every step of this journey, and we are praying boldly for healing, strength, wisdom for her medical team, and peace for her family. Whether you're able to give financially, share this fundraiser, or simply lift Marigold up in prayer, every act of support makes a difference. Thank you for surrounding this family with love during one of the most challenging seasons.
</div>
<div>"Carry each other's burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ." — Galatians 6:2

Helping Marigold and Family Through Retinoblastoma

<div>Update as of 11/9/2025: Alicia has received a heart!!!!!
</div>
<div>On October 25th, Alicia's world changed forever. She suffered a massive heart attack, which led to multiple emergency surgeries and a long, uncertain road ahead.
</div>
<div>Alicia first received care at Cumberland Medical Center, where doctors worked quickly to stabilize her. She was then transferred to Parkwest Medical Center for further specialized treatment, and now she’s been moved to St. Thomas Hospital in Nashville as her medical team discusses the next steps — including the possibility of a heart transplant.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Alicia’s condition is extremely serious. A portion of her heart has been permanently damaged and no longer functions, leaving her doctors to explore every possible path forward. She is currently on ECMO (Extracorporeal Membrane Oxygenation) — a life-support treatment that temporarily takes over the work of the heart and lungs, allowing her body the critical time it needs to rest and heal.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Through all of this, Alicia’s family has remained faithfully by her side, supporting her with strength and love every step of the way. As you can imagine, the emotional and financial toll of such a long hospitalization and ongoing care is overwhelming. There will be continuing expenses for travel, lodging, and daily needs while Alicia remains hospitalized.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Alicia is a devoted mom and a dedicated nurse at Johnson Family Medical, known for her compassion, kindness, and the way she’s always gone above and beyond to care for her patients and loved ones. Now, she needs that same care and support in return.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Your donation, no matter the size, will go directly toward helping Alicia and her family through this incredibly difficult time.
</div>
<div>If you’re unable to give, please keep Alicia and her loved ones in your prayers, and share this page to help spread the word.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for your love, support, and kindness. Together, we can help Alicia focus on healing and hope.

<div>Support Courtney Ottos fight against Cancer! #CourtneysCancerCombat
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I am writing to request donations on behalf of Courtney Otto's fight against cancer. Courtney is a shining light in the lives of everyone who knows her. Unfortunately, over the holiday season, a week before Christmas, she received the devastating news that she had been diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma. This diagnosis was a blow in and of itself, but needless to say, the financial toll it will take to fight this cancer will carry its own weight. We want to ensure that Courtney can focus on her health without worrying about the financial burden. Your contribution will go directly towards helping Courtney cover the costs of her cancer treatment, including:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>* Medications
</div>
<div>* Hospital bills, ER visits, cancer surgery costs
</div>
<div>* Meals, gas, monthly bills
</div>
<div>* Lost wages due to time off work
</div>
<div>* Other expenses related to her care
</div>
<div>* Trial and error with sensitive foods, healthcare products, OTC meds, etc.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Courtney is a loving, vibrant and genuinely kind person and deserves all the love and support in the world.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Courtney isn't the type of person to ask for donations, but I know our support would mean the world to help her get through this difficult time. Please consider donating if you are able. Any amount, small or big would be appreciated and helpful.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you,

COURTNEY BEAT CANCER! THANK YOU ALL!

<div>This fundraiser is for Brandon and Sarah Weigel. Brandon is a Journeyman Lineman (IBEW Local 760) who was injured while working on an energized powerline on April 24, 2023. After making contact, he sustained significant burns to his left arm and right hand. He was flown to Vanderbilt University Hospital. He had surgery for a nerve release, fasciotomy, and escharotomy. He was moved to the Burn ICU afterward.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As of April 28, 2023, it is still uncertain when he will return home. Brandon and his wife Sarah have two little ones at home. They do not live close to Vanderbilt, so travel expenses are an extra burden. Sarah's role is changing from being a line wife to an advocate and caretaker for her husband.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We hope to raise money to help with medical, travel, and everyday living expenses. Having been through this ourselves, we know that life is still happening outside this tragic event and the tremendous impact that friends, family, and donations will have on his situation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for helping this sweet family!

Injured Journeyman Lineman Brandon Weigel

My dreams were coming true. I had the best partner a person could dream of. I was digging through vinyls in a small town in the middle of Idaho. I never dreamed Idaho would be so beautiful. I never imagined my travels would ever have to stop. I may have been breathing for 27 years, but something about breathing mountain air for the first time will breathe life into you, or maybe it was the first time I experienced a real snowy winter in Maine that started making my life more than just the pumps that run blood through my veins, but I couldn't quite enjoy it as much as I wanted to because the migraines kept getting worse and more frequent, the night sweats and terrors eventually took over my life, and I would sleep most days I had off work instead of enjoying these precious views. My heart started breaking when I seen how much it effected the person I love the most. He would say something, and I would either snap, or not have the energy to say anything at all. As I sat in the floor of a nurse patrictioner's office in the middle of Idaho, I broke. I cried and screamed at her, " I don't know what's wrong. I feel awful, something isn't right. PLEASE HELP ME." Everything shattered when I got a phone call at work that following Saturday morning telling my I had a brain tumor. For months I thought I was slowly losing my mind, along with my hair, but this type of tumor produces its own hormones. Answers were nice at first, but I had to quit my dream job to move home for treatment. I lost my insurance the day I left from Idaho in pursuit of care, and it took a long time before we found anything else, and to be honest it is awful coverage. I have been pushed aside by so many doctors as the tumor continues to grow, and within the past month it has quadrupled. I use to dream of traveling the world, and now I dream of getting out of bed, and just being healthy again. I dream of not being the reason for my family's tears. I never knew heart break until I had to watch Zach hold my face as I screamed and cried because my head hurt so bad, and no doctor truly wanted to help. That was until I met Carolyn Ross. She suggested the Mayo Clinic, and Zach and I thought, "YES! Finally the treatment we have been looking for!" But they won't give financial assistance to people who have insurance. My insurance in network is horrible, but out of network means we will have to pay for almost everything. It's $734 up front for each appointment, and we are looking at a minimum of three, and then any other costs for treatment. All I want for Christmas is to hold Zach's face, kiss his forehead, and say it's finally over. We are so close to that happening. They want to see me this coming Wednesday in Arizona, but previous expenses from hospital visits, and falling behind on bills has drained both of us. So close. We were so close to finally getting cared for. So in an attempt for possibly a miracle I decided to share my story with you.
