<div>For those who've been following Seth Smith's journey, you're aware that on July 3rd, 2023, he suffered a severe injury, breaking his neck and leaving him paralyzed. Currently an active-duty Marine stationed in San Diego, Seth's incredible mother, Sharon, has been tirelessly commuting between her home in South Florida and San Diego to provide unwavering support and care for him. However, a significant development is on the horizon this month: Seth will be discharged from the military and will return home to live with his mother.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sharon, a single mom of three boys, is dedicated to her family granola business in South Florida, working hard to sustain her household. Welcoming Seth home presents a host of challenges as he requires a handicap-accessible living environment. Sharon urgently needs to secure a suitable home for Seth, necessitating a move within the next week to be fully prepared for his arrival in a few weeks.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This transition comes with substantial financial implications, as the cost is expected to double compared to her current apartment. Beyond securing a new residence, Sharon also faces the daunting task of furnishing the home and acquiring specialized equipment crucial for Seth's rehabilitation. Moreover, a handicap-accessible vehicle is essential for transporting him to and from vital physical and occupational therapy sessions. The financial burden of these requirements is already overwhelming.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Sharon, who seldom asks for assistance, finds herself in a position where she cannot navigate these challenges alone. We appeal to your generosity and compassion to support Sharon and Seth in any way possible, ensuring that his recovery is not only manageable but successful. Your contributions will make a significant difference in their lives during this challenging time. Thank you sincerely for your consideration and support.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>TriCare's denial of the doctor's request for home gym PT equipment is posing a significant obstacle for Seth's ongoing quest to regain functionality. Instead, he is compelled to rely on a facility gym charging a steep $175 per hour for essential physical therapy (PT). Currently participating in a promising stem cell trial at the Mayo Clinic, Seth is scheduled for a stem cell transfer early in January. The medical team at Mayo emphasizes the critical need for immediate and intensive muscle exercise to optimize the potential regrowth of nerves and enhance mind-muscle connectivity.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The ideal solution lies in equipping Seth with home gym equipment, and facilitating regular and rigorous PT sessions. Unfortunately, navigating the complexities of TriCare has proven to be an arduous and frustrating experience, as many who have dealt with the system can attest. It's disheartening to realize that the prospect of regaining function hangs in the balance, contingent upon the availability of proper PT and equipment.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Recognizing the urgency of Seth's situation, we are rallying support to ensure he has every conceivable opportunity for the restoration of function. All funds donated at this time will be directed towards covering the costs of dedicated PT hours following his upcoming stem cell transfer. Your generosity will play a pivotal role in maximizing Seth's chances for a successful recovery, and your support is genuinely appreciated.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you sincerely for dedicating your time to read through this heartfelt appeal. Your care and consideration mean the world to us, whether or not you're able to contribute financially. In the face of adversity, Seth's resilience shines through, and we firmly believe that with collective support, he can make an inspiring comeback. Together, let's provide Seth with the absolute best chance for a remarkable recovery. Your compassion and positive energy make a difference, and we are truly grateful for your support!

I am starting this to help Swallowtail Farm rebuild their farmstand:<br /><br />"Sadly this is what we awoke to last night. Someone destroyed our farmstand with their tractor / bucket loader. They used the neighbors driveway to get a running start to demolish it. I was up most of the night with the police and feeling horrible that someone intentionally tried to destroy our livelihood. We have had our little farm stand up in front of our house for 12 years. It was self service and honor system. We sell our eggs, dairy, herbal products and sometimes meats and baked goods. Sometimes we’ve sold plants and flowers. This past summer during the pandemic , we sold our neighbors vegetables and fruits and whole chickens. <br /><br />I’ve found great joy making things look nice and finding all of your thank you notes over the years. It truly saddens me that someone decided to drive their tractor here past midnight and ruin a large portion of how we make our business run and pay our bills. This winter ,we made the decision due to the pandemic of not traveling to our winter market and focusing on our farm stand.<br /><br />And looking for help from our neighbors.. the tire tracks went towards the Howe road from our house. It was a yellow tractor bucket loader. Looked like something our neighbor, Kurt Whitehouse sold when he moved off his place this fall. There were cedar branches dragged down the road. You can reach out to us or to LCS. <br /><br />Thank you so much, Lauren and Sean"

Friends and Family, <br />     We are reaching out for your support. Areya was rushed to Children's Hospital Saturday evening. After a week long battle with cold/flu symptoms, it was discovered that fluid had built up around her 3-year-old heart. During a procedure to treat Areya's symptoms, she went into cardiac arrest. <br />     Areya is currently on ECMO (life support) to allow her heart time to heal. She has been diagnosed with myocarditis, an inflammation of the middle layer of the heart wall. It is a rare condition, with fewer than 200,000 U.S. cases per year. While there is a 70% chance for her to make a full recovery, the timeline on how long her road will be is undetermined at this time. <br />     We are asking for your support for Areya and her family as they walk this uncertain path. Areya's parents, Darbie and Joey need to stay close to the hospital. Donations will assist to reduce any financial burdens they may incur during this journey. Thank you for your time. <br /><br />Please send your love, strength, and prayers.

Support for the Kirby Family

Many of you have been wondering what's going on with little Zackariah Alexander. It all started with a rough  night , hardly any sleep but nothing too alarming.  Dad &amp; Mom felt like he should see his doctor because of his inconsistant breathing. He hadn't been sick very long but it seemed neccessary. Joanna made an appointment to see his doctor Wednesday of last week. Which was the following day after a rough night. Little Zack is 9 months old and has seemed very healthy up to this point. This is his first bad flu.<br /> At the doctors office, every person in the office that day was having a look at Zack. Joanna started to realize that this may be more serious then the flu but still had no idea what was going on. The next thing she hears is he is being transported to cape cod hospital via ambulance.  Her heart almost completely stopped. These words went flying right over her head and so did the days to follow. Upon arrival they immediately diagnosed him with bi-lateral pneumonia. The next thing she heard is that he was being Med-flighted to Childrens ICU in Boston. They did not have what they needed to save his life at Cape Cod Hospital. <br />The week to follow has been nothing but a rollercoaster for his parents who have been by his side day and night praying  for his recovery.  He is still in the ICU. He has been completely sedated and on life support.  He has not been awake this whole time which is very scary for his parents. He has a VERY serious case of pneumonia. Amoung other complications this poor baby has had a very rough week+ and has a long road of recovery ahead of him but it is very hopeful he will pull through. <br /> We are starting to hear good news but it is not over. <br />All of these circumstances have created a great financial strain on this family. Mason and Joanna are litterally sleeping on a twin bed in a family waiting area outside the ICU. Because it is touch and go with this little boy  , Mason is not able to work.<br /> Food and personal care are not easy to come by. They have 4 other children who are being cared for by family members. They have household bills and expenses that they could really use help with at this time. <br /> My hope is to raise some money however much it may be so they can cover their expenses while Maosn is unable to go to work . I know some family members and friends have asked what they can do to help. This would really help this family. 5, 10 dollars is enough to get a cup of tea with a peace of mind that the bank account will not go dry. <br /> This experience has been extremely emotional on the parents, they miss their other children so bad. They are holding on to hope that this will all be over and life will resume as normal. Any amount of encouragement for them would be awesome. And we all know what financial stress is like, with that said lets raise some $ for them.<br />Thank you!

Baby Zack's  Recovery

I wanted to set up this page so people who'd like to help the family of our dear Abby can do so....to cover the  cost of food for her four children who have no mother......and every thing else that could ease the pain in the smallest way. No amount of money could come close to easing the pain, but it will help this poor family to get through this tragic time. Abby was the most loving, caring person I know.g She is deeply loved and will be profoundly missed till our dying day.

In honor of our beloved Abby

<div>This family we love has faced another unimaginable loss.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>On January 13, at the age of 54, Rebecca “Becky” Gadsby Lukens went home to be with Jesus, and with her husband of 13 years, Rob Lukens.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Becky faithfully walked beside Rob through his battle with cancer until his passing in 2015, at the age of 42. After that loss, her life centered on raising their children, Abbie and Finn, with steadfast love and strength.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>In late 2023, the unimaginable took place. Becky too was diagnosed with cancer. For a time, it seemed beatable. For over two years, she fought with quiet determination, deep faith, and grace, doing everything she could to stay here for her children, to see them through high school, college, and into the futures she dreamed for them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>But cancer is relentless.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Becky passed away at home, surrounded by love. She leaves behind Abbie (22) and Finn (19), at the threshold of adulthood now facing life without their parents loving guidance. They were raised in a home marked by love, faith, and resilience. They watched their parents endure suffering with courage and trust in God, and they carry that legacy with them, yet no amount of strength can fully prepare them for this loss.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This GoFundMe is for Abbie and Finn. It will help cover basic living expenses, education costs, medical and legal needs, and the many unexpected financial burdens that come with losing both parents at such a young age. Most of all, it is meant to give them room to grieve without the added worry of how they will manage what comes next.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>If you are able, please consider donating. If not, please share this page and keep Abbie and Finn in your prayers.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This family has always been carried by love, and by Jesus. Now, let us be part of how He carries them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for praying. Thank you for walking with them.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
