Help Geoff Get Medical Care in Cleveland!
Geoff and Lisa are the hard-working parents of five wonderful children. Geoff was recently diagnosed with an extremely rare disease called Segmental Arterial Mediolysis, or SAM, which can cause serious artery tears without warning throughout his body. He recently spent weeks at the University of Utah Hospital in intensive care and suffered damage to both kidneys due to major artery tears and the resulting blood clots.
The doctors here in Utah have never seen a case of SAM and very little is known about this disease. Doctors at the University of Utah helped Lisa and Geoff locate a doctor in Cleveland, Dr. Heather Gornik, who specializes in vascular diseases and treats cases of SAM. Thanks to early supporters of this GoFundMe campaign, Lisa and Geoff were able to go to Cleveland to meet with Dr. Gornik where she found another torn artery the doctors in Utah had completely missed. They’re certain she’s the right doctor for Geoff with the best support services.
After much prayer and deliberation, Geoff and Lisa have decided to move their family to Ohio so they can receive the medical care Geoff needs. As siblings of Lisa and Geoff, we’re trying to raise a little money to help them with some of their medical expenses and the immense moving costs they are facing. Any little bit you can do is greatly appreciated, including your prayers. They have a big journey ahead and they feel grateful for all of your love and support!
