Help the Stansberry Family

Donation protected
If Murphy's Law ever adopted a family, it's ours!  Some of you know how hard things have been for our family for quite some time. In the past five years, we have been inundated with one hardship after another. Things have reached a dire point and now more than ever we need the love, help, prayers, and support of our friends and family.

Joshua, our 15-year-old son with the mind of a 4-year-old, isn't doing too well. He has a multiplicity of medical problems including a rare and terminal neurodegenerative disorder called Neurodegeneration with Brain Iron Accumulation. He's struggled considerably for five years now (he eats via G-tube, had a complete spinal fusion and a baclofen pump placed, and gets around via wheelchair or crawling) and things have only gotten worse.

 My husband, who is our sole provider, was a passenger in a jeep that was rear-ended on Aug. 31, 2019. He spent three weeks in the hospital after sustaining a moderate traumatic brain  injury among other injuries and complications. He is still unable to return to work and our future is uncertain.

I have multiple chronic illnesses and the fact that the brunt of responsibilities has fallen on me has taken a toll and so I am reaching out and asking for help, for monetary support, and for your love and prayers. Our home and yard need a lot of work. Expenses are piling up. Financial support will go toward gas, medical-related expenses,  home repairs, and bills.

Before the accident, we were hoping to fix up our home and sell so we could move closer to town (near Children's Hospital). This house is not conducive at all to my son's needs.  Now we don't know what the future holds and the income received prior will lessen considerably.

Please consider a donation, pray for us (we also have three other children including a son with autism and intellectual disability and another with various medical needs) and share this GoFundMe.

If you are local, we would welcome help with repairs or housecleaning. For someone to organize benefits or fundraisers. Please let me know. Our family is overwhelmed at the myriad of trials we continue to experience and the uncertainty of our future.

Thank you so much and God bless.
