Dear Family and Friends!
We wanted to share about our sweet little Cooper and invite you to join our family as we continue to rally around his journey of life.
Cooper just turned two years old. He’s a twin, a fighter, and a little boy who brings us great joy with his beautiful smile. After complications at birth, a stroke and 9 deep brain bleeds, he was diagnosed with Spastic Quadriplegic Cerebral Palsy, Epilepsy, and Vision and Hearing Impairments. Since then, our family has been committed to helping him reach his fullest potential.
Recently, Cooper’s seizures—something that has been a major obstacle—are presently under control. Now, for the first time, his parents feel like they can truly move forward and focus on giving Cooper every opportunity to grow and thrive physically and cognitively.
But as many of you know, the kind of care Cooper needs often falls outside what insurance will cover.
We’re working together to raise funds to support:
💙 Intensive physical and Neurological Therapy at the NAPA Center in Boston, World Renowned for Pediatric Intervention — $7,500 - $8,000 for a 3 week program starting September 8th, 2025.
💙 Application Pending for stem cell treatment — around $15,000 - $20,000 before travel
💙 Accessible Modifications to the home for a handicap bathroom and wheelchair accessibility, wheelchair accessible van - $50,000 - $60,000
💙 Other out-of-pocket medical needs to give Cooper the best shot at progress while he’s still in these critical early years.
These therapies are most effective now, while Cooper is young and his brain is still rapidly developing. Time matters!
His parents, Amira and Tom, have been incredibly strong and resourceful, but this is more than one family can take on alone. That’s where we come in. As a community, we can help lift the financial burden so they can focus on what matters most: Cooper’s health, progress, and joy.
From the bottom of our hearts—thank you for showing up for Cooper. Whether it's a donation, a prayer, or simply sharing this with someone who can help, it all makes a difference.
With Gratitude,
Jane Roberts (Gigi) and Gina Kraus (Mema)
