In Support of BEElieve In Benny

BEElieve In Benny
Dear family and friends,

We are reaching out to share the story of our courageous little miracle, Benny. At just four months old, Benny experienced a hypoxic brain injury while under daycare supervision.

This injury has led to significant developmental challenges, including Cerebral Palsy, Cortical Visual Impairment, and Dystonia. Benny is currently dependent on a G-Tube for nourishment and requires around-the-clock care.

Our family is committed to advocating for Benny's needs, attending numerous medical appointments, and ensuring he receives essential therapies.

However, these medical expenses and therapies are financially overwhelming, and we are asking for your support to help us give Benny the best possible chance at life.

Because of You, Look How Far Benny Has Come 🐝🤍

When we first began sharing Benny’s journey, there were so many therapies and treatments we desperately wanted to pursue—many of them not covered by insurance and completely out of reach without the people who chose to believe in him alongside us.

Because of your prayers, donations, fundraisers, shares, and support, we have been able to give Benny opportunities we once only hoped for.

Over the last two years, your support has helped make possible:

✔️ Stem Cell Therapy — giving us the opportunity to explore regenerative treatment and continue searching for ways to help Benny’s brain and body heal.

✔️ Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy — including multiple rounds of treatment and access to an in-home chamber.

✔️ DMI Intensives at BeelievAbility in Carmel, Indiana — July 2025, October 2025 & May 2026, focusing on strength, mobility, motor development and feeding.

✔️ NAPA Denver Intensive Therapy — specialized DMI and feeding therapy to continue building essential skills.

✔️ Weekly Chiropractic Care — supporting Benny’s alignment, comfort and overall well-being.

These are not just places we traveled or treatments we checked off a list. They are opportunities you helped give our son.

And we will never be able to adequately say thank you.

So, what’s next for Benny? 🐝

September 2026 — Rebel Peds DMI Intensive
One week of intensive DMI therapy focused on continuing to build strength, mobility and motor skills — approximately $2,500.

October 2026 — Stem Cell Therapy in Mérida, Mexico
We will travel to Mérida for another round of stem cell therapy and supportive treatments. Treatment is approximately $14,000, plus airfare and travel expenses for the week.

December 22, 2026 — Hip Surgery
Benny will undergo hip surgery, and afterward our biggest priority will be allowing his body to heal while carefully rebuilding strength and mobility.

Looking Ahead to 2027

Because we don’t know exactly what Benny’s recovery after hip surgery will look like, we aren’t putting firm dates on everything just yet. But we already have some big goals we are working toward:

🐝 BeelievAbility — Carmel, Indiana
We hope to return for another intensive once Benny is healed and cleared after surgery.

🐝 NJPFA — New Jersey
We plan to book an intensive with a specialized feeding and swallowing therapist to continue working toward one of our biggest goals for Benny—safe, functional feeding and swallowing.

🐝 On the Fly DMI
We also plan to complete an intensive with On the Fly DMI to continue challenging Benny physically and building on the strength and skills he has worked so hard for.

🐝 Neorgana 
We also plan to complete another round of stem cell therapy to continue to help strengthen the damaged areas and parts of Bennys brain and body in Meridia, Mexico

So many of the opportunities Benny has already received were made possible because people chose to donate, fundraise, share his story, pray for him and simply believe in him alongside us.

You have helped us say YES to therapies and treatments we never could have done alone.

And as we look toward 2027, our prayer remains the same:

Give Benny every opportunity we possibly can.
 Meet him exactly where he is.
 Celebrate every bit of progress.
 Trust God with the parts we cannot control.
 And never stop BEE-lieving. 🐝🤍

Each of these treatments have the potential to be life-changing, but the financial burden is significant. 
 
Shelby will be posting updates here for more on Benny's story of recovery.
