Finn’s Story 🩵
Finn is our third born baby and has been the most precious gift to us. He has two big sisters (4 and 6) who have delighted in him since the moment they knew he would be joining our family. At 5 weeks old, on May 29, we rushed him to the ER for sudden lethargy and failure to eat.
They discovered he had a severe, unexplained brain bleed and quickly after he was taken for emergency brain surgery.
Our lives were flipped upside down so quickly and what we expected to be a summer full of baby snuggles turned into 7 weeks in the hospital, 35 of those days in the ICU with our boy fighting for his life.
He overcame so much while we were there and God worked many miracles in his body. Being released from the hospital was a gift but it was not the end of his healing journey. The bleed he experienced affected his brain leading to feeding struggles, developmental delays and other instabilities in his body. Doctors are unable to give answers for what the future will look like but we trust in God who works miracles and gives us wisdom for each step of his life.
We are committed to doing everything we can to provide the best future for Finn and there are no words for how grateful we are for each of you coming alongside us in this journey
The road forward is filled with hope, but also many challenges. Most of the therapies and treatments that can make the biggest impact on Finn’s healing are not covered by insurance. The costs add up quickly, but these interventions offer Finn the best chance at progress, independence, and a brighter future.
We know how deeply our community loves Finn, and after much thought and prayer, we have chosen to share this journey openly. By standing with us—through donations, meals, prayers, or acts of service—you have helped carry this load.
