Help Kelly Hagerman fight her battle with Moyamoya

Donation protected
As some of you may know, my wife, Kelly, recently began to notice numbness and tingling in her right hand, wrist and face.  After many doctor visits and neurological tests, the issue has been diagnosed as Moyamoya. For those who are not familiar with Moyamoya, it is a rare condition in which the blood vessels that supply blood to the brain become narrowed. This limits the flow of blood to the brain, and puts Kelly at a very high risk for stroke. The brain tries to make up for reduced blood flow by growing new blood vessels, called collaterals. The treatment for this condition is surgery in the parts of the brain where these collaterals have grown. Since Moyamoya is so rare, there are only a few facilities in the US that are able to treat the condition. 

Kelly is the love of my life. She is one of the most amazing people I have ever known. She is selfless, brave, caring, thoughtful and a person of integrity and strong convictions. She is one of those people that others gravitate to and immediately feel like they have known her forever. She is also an unbelievable mother, and is my best friend. I really am a lucky guy.
So, I am asking for your help. While insurance does cover a portion of the medical expenses, the remainder is still considerable. I know that times are tough right now for many people as we all deal with the pandemic. That said, if you have means, I know Kelly and our family would be grateful for any assistance you can provide. Thank you!
