Renee, Mike and Family

Renee and Mike welcomed a beautiful baby boy, Emmett Lee, into this world on October 6th.  All seemed well and they were so excited to meet their sweet little boy! But, their excitement was short lived as they were informed that Emmett had a delayed heartbeat, low platelet counts, a fever and a handful of other symptoms that was cause for concern.  After days of blood transfusions and testing for everything, the doctors finally came back and found that he tested positive for meningitis.  Since his diagnosis he has been transferred to Rockford Memorial Hospital where they have put into place a treatment plan that will span over the next 2-3 weeks.  Emmett has been so strong through all of this and we are all very hopeful for a speedy, full recovery.  Due to all of the unexpected expenses and time off of work, we are asking for your help in supporting this loving family in a time of need.  Any little bit helps and would help to alleviate some of their stress, and make it possible for Mike to be with his family during this very tough time.  Thank you in advance for your love and support for the "Gonzo-bazzi" family. ❤
