The Bello Family Fund

I am starting this page for Gary and Krista Bello, two of the kindest people I met during my college years.  They met and fell in love at Keene State College, and they are married and have a beautiful daughter named Brynn. 

On Saturday, June 20, 2015, they welcomed their second child Bryce Paul Bello, a big baby boy tipping the scales at 9 lbs 8 oz.  They quickly learned that something was wrong; Bryce was having trouble breathing.  It quickly became apparent that Bryce needed to be supported in the NICU.  He has been in the hospital since birth.

Krista has informed me that Bryce has an extremely rare genetic abnormality: a brain lung thyroid gene deletion.  So far only his lungs are affected, but a lot is unknown. 

I do not live close to the Bellos; they are in Connecticut and I am in Maine.  I'm sure I'm not the only friend who isn't able to be physically present to help out, so that's where this page comes in.  I am hoping by contributing money to this family, we can help offset the costs of medical copays, gas money to and from the hospital, and supplementing any income lost from time off from work. 

Please give what you can, anything will help.  Most of all, continue to pray for this family and sweet little Bryce as they all face the challenge of their lives. 

We love you Gary and Krista!  Keep fighting, Bryce...we're all in your corner, buddy!
