Donation protected
Hi, my name is Kristy and I'm fundraising for the Giera family! This family is always so supportive of their friends, family and community and it's time we all come together and support them!!
Some of you may already know, but Jen and the girls were all born with a disease called HHT (Hereditary Hemorrhagic telangiectasia). This is a disorder that causes abnormal connections, called arteriovenous malformations to develop between arteries and veins. The most common areas affected are the lungs, brain, nose and liver.
Emma currently has 3 brain bleeds and her lungs are full of them.
Bella has lots of bleeds in her lungs.
Mia has multiple bleeds in her brain and in her lungs. Shes has had numerous brain surgeries and more to come. She has epilepsy as well as many other medical issues all as a result of her surgeries.
Jen has multiple as well!
Scott, also injured himself earlier this year, when he slipped on ice in his yard. He fell and hit his head hard! He was unconcious for at least a half and hour. He woke on his own, thank goodness, and was hospitalized.
Scott is experiencing a lot of migraines, extreme sensory issues to light and sound, a hard time reading and writing, and looking at screens, following conversations and comprehension. Hes currently in in physical therapy and speech therapy.
Scott was the source of family income.
He is unable to work. The family is not able to receive short term disability through Scott's job. They are trying to apply for long term disability, but the process is going to take some time!
They have been using up all their savings etc.
They need our help!!! Please consider donating whatever amount you can to support this family! Anything will help!!
Thank you for your love, prayers, kindness and support! ♡
