Let's Rally for Justin and Family

Hi, my name is Tobin Jacob, and I’m writing this with a heart full of love and urgency for someone incredibly dear to me and my family — Justin Sanchez (35 years old).

On the night of April 6th, 2025, everything changed in an instant.

In the middle of the night, Justin — a healthy, energetic, loving husband and father — suddenly suffered a seizure in his sleep. Moments later, his heart stopped. He went into cardiac arrest, and his heart stopped beating for 18 excruciating minutes.

By the grace of God, and the quick actions of his wife Stephanie, and a brave responding police officer and ambulance, Justin made it to the hospital alive.

Now he’s fighting for his life.

The trauma from the seizure and cardiac arrest has left him unconscious and dependent on a ventilator for breathing.

He’s a father of four beautiful children: Aria (10), Wynter (9), Little Justin (7), and Jeremiah (4 months). He’s a husband to Stephanie, his rock, who has been by his side through everything — and now faces the unimaginable: caring for a newborn, three young children, and her husband in critical condition.

Justin is one of those rare people who makes the world better just by being in it. He is a man of deep faith and deep love; a pillar in his community, serving through his church, mentoring youth, sharing his energy with his friends both young and old. His impact is felt across generations.

This kind of tragedy changes everything in an instant. While we are praying for full recovery and healing over Justin, his family needs support to stay afloat — emotionally, physically, and financially.

We’re asking for your help to cover: emergency and ongoing hospital care, rehabilitation and therapy, home and childcare support for Stephanie and the kids, and basic living expenses while Justin is unable to work.

No one ever expects to be in this situation. But we know we’re not alone. We know that love stretches far and wide — and we believe in the power of community.

How You Can Help: Pray — For healing, for peace, and for the strength to keep going. Donate — Every single dollar helps and goes directly to Justin’s family. Share — Please share this link with your friends, family, church groups, and social media.

Justin has always been someone who shows up for others — now it’s our turn to show up for him.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for loving this family and walking with us in this fight.

With love and hope,

Tobin Jacob
