"Our family is experiencing an incredibly difficult time. My fiancée has been hospitalized due to severe complications from Lupus, and unfortunately, her condition is not improving as the days go by. We have no idea how long she will need to remain in the hospital, which has added even more uncertainty to our situation. I have had to stop working to care for our children and make sure her focus can be on healing, but this has left us struggling to cover bills, rent, food, and necessities like diapers and formula for our baby. With no family nearby to help and no way to pay for daily childcare, we are truly stuck and in need of help. Asking for assistance is not easy for us, but we are sincerely reaching out so my fiancée can continue to fight for her health without the added worry of our family's basic needs. Any support, no matter how small, would mean the world to us and help us get through this challenging time. Thank you for your kindness and generosity. (fb)

Help Delivered for Canon 💚 A two-year-old boy named Canon was diagnosed with a rare congenital heart defect leading to not one but now two open heart surgeries. His condition, known as a sub-aortic membrane and found in only about 1% of all heart defects, obstructs blood flow from the heart’s left ventricle, disrupting its ability to function normally. In order to support Canon's recovery, his parents Callan and Camryn expect to take at least a month off work. To help ease the burden, loved ones launched a GoFundMe campaign on the family’s behalf. Thanks to supporters, their fundraising goal was met. "Hi Everyone! This campaign is for the benefit of Cal and Camryn and their growing family. More specifically, this is for Canon, their son and my God-Son. When Canon was 2 years old, he was diagnosed with a rare congenital heart defect, a subaortic membrane, which makes up 1% of all heart defects. The membrane obstructs blood flow to the left ventricular tract which interferes with the normal flow of blood. There is only one way to treat this and that is with open heart surgery. Canon, the trooper that he is, already underwent one open heart surgery, in October of 2024. With that surgery, there was a 25% chance that a recurrence would take place. Moving forward to today, that recurrence happened. Canon is faced with another subaortic membrane, this time causing more obstruction. There is an obstacle of scar tissue to work around, which in turn could create more difficulties. Cal and Camryn (also troopers, as I can only imagine the emotions along with walking with their son during these times and procedures) are hoping to complete the surgery in Miami, if possible. With this comes an extra cost, but is the best facility to handle a case like this. Taking this time to take care of Canon, will put them out of work for a combined month as their PTO will be exhausted. Donations will help cove that missed work, bills, medical expenses, travel expenses to get the best care they can for Canon. Any donation towards the goal is incredibly appreciated by Cal and Camryn (and Canon of course), but prayers are incredibly appreciated and desired as well!" (fb)
