Mello has a TBI and he, his mom Nyree and family are in need of constant prayer as they work tirelessly day after day to rehab him back to his original state. He IS making great progress, but as you can imagine, it's a slow process.

Raelynn can use prayers for a legal matter that is very stressful and unsettling for her whole family. 

She also needs prayers because she's in the hospital with medical concerns that are causing her much pain and discomfort. They have been unable to diagnose or resolve so this is worrying her mamma. 

This girl has never had anything short of a complex medical history, however, we are looking at multiple organ issues. All treatable if she was dealing with just one alone, however thats not the case. We hurt knowing that we are up against so many odds. We need miracle after miracle. We have a long road ahead and honestly, I am not sure how much her body can take. When you have multiple systems failing, it's only a matter of time until it gives out.
We have made the decision to do whatever makes her the most comfortable and try the least invasive options as possible. Thank you for continuing to pray for her and our family. Our immediate family has stepped up to watch our other children. We miss seeing them and having to be in 2 different spots breaks my heart.

Landis has a TBI from an accident that involved her brother and her brothers girlfriend. Sadly, Gia perished as a result of the accident. Brother Gavin has several lingering issues and Landis struggles to get her life back. 

​

7/7/25 - Lots of prayers for discernment are being requested. Some choices, some purchases, some changes. 

5/7/25 - "Yes as always we pray daily for Landis to get her voice back!!! Her smile, we miss her smile so very much, laughter, we want to know she has Joy. 

Specific stuff could always be for discernment, what’s next for Landis we are looking at High Hopes in Tustin, neurolab360 in Encinitas, VIP rehab in Mira Mesa, and a feldenkrais option , TMS as well .. all of these are far from home so how God do we make it all Happen without completely exhausting ourselves! Or is it right to go everyday somewhere or not, when she is pushed Landis does amazing but we don’t want to push too much we shut her down either. 

We NEED more Landis Helpers to come onboard to help us as others fade out. 

So if anyone has any experience or is up for the challenge (take physical stamina, the excitement to learn and want to teach Landis as well…) ages preferred are 20 something to relate to Landis but also have some commitment to the job. "

Cameron has been off and on in behaviors. He is complaining about intermittent neck pain, sayin it hurts to sit in the car or in wheelchair and I’ve chalked it up to post op pain. He is asking for meds once or twice a day to manage a semi comfortable position Well last night find him laying on the couch lethargic and just emotionless. During last cath of night I notice significant swelling and pooled up fluid. 

Could mean tear in dura and CSF leak, could mean shunt needs to be adjusted again. 

Best case scenario it’ll dissipate on own without intervention. They’ll likely request mri either way. Worst case scenario they’d need to go in and sew a tear. From others in SB community other interventions were shunt adjustments and need to drain fluid with local anesthesia. 

​

We would love prayers for continued healing and recovery to baseline for Cameron, prayers to keep Matt healthy and home safely from deployment, and prayers for the medical teams responsible for Cameron’s care/treatment. insurance to approve all the new equipment Cameron needs and quick access to the items needed. And Prayers for the govt and state to continue to fund the programs that are allowing me to stay home with and provide Cams care. The first six years were rough on a single income and once he was approved for the state programs things got easier. Several legislative bills are up for debate and voting and there is possible potential for a drastic reduction in the hours awarded to assist in his care/possibility of programs being cut entirely. So we are on edge awaiting to see what will happen. Also, prayers needed for Cameron's dads deployment. 

9/10/25 Lily and Ramone are on their way to Philadelphia for her surgery and blood cell collection.

819/25 UPDATE: Lily has been selected to be a part of the clinical trial which will take place in Philadelphia. She will receive several rounds of chemo here and leave for PA in September. Until then, as long as her body stays strong, she will continue to be in person fir st grade and continue crushing it. Our prayers is that her body stays strong so she can enjoy being in school and of course, that this trial cures her from cancer once and for all.

7/14/25 Lily has been literally crushing the world and living her best life as she should be, but Family and Friends our world has just been flipped upside down, Lily’s results came back from the Bone Marrow Biopsy completed on July 1st, and Leukemia cells were detected, her cancer has returned, Lily has relapsed. Lily will be included in a clinical trial omce all testing is complete. 

Dylan is a cancer survivor who has had a bone marrow transplant. Although the transplant seems to have kept his cancer at bay, he's had many side effects and issues that he continues to deal with on a daily basis. His mom is a single mom with 2 other children at home and the travel to the hospital regularly has put a strain on the entire family. 

​

8/28 Update/Prayers for guidance:

Day +771 Dylan had a nice, couple week break from seeing his oncologist which was nice. We attended Family Camp with @oncologyandkids and celebrated his 18th birthday!

He is scheduled next week for a gastric emptying scan to see if his stomach is paralyzed, something I've been asking for since February. He has been throwing up his feeds almost every morning. Not only is it feeds, but also chunks of real food from the day before. This is making them think he has gastroperisis(stomach paralysis). The doctors are also concerned about how stiff his joints are and the spots on his skin. They, now are convinced he has had chronic GVHD this whole time. While medications for this have not been helping, they now want to treat him with a new medicine that was just approved by the FDA in February. He would be the first patient to use this medicine at Rady's. I have attached a couple pics of this medication. I have many mixed feelings about it but Dylan is all for it, as he just wants to feel better and not deal with all these nasty side effects anymore. I can't blame him. No matter what the scan results are they will be starting that infusion in September. He has his upcoming knee surgery Sept 10. Hoping he gains full motility of his knee once and for all. This up and down battle of everything is taxing on us all. Please pray the upcoming month(s) will be smooth sailing and all worth it.

7/24 - Specific prayers for the family. Jana along with a family member reeived less than ideal test results. We pray that the doctors find the answers to heal all.

Jana deals with several medical issues on a daily basis that started with tumors on her ovaries while pregnant with her second daughter. she's had an emergency hysterectomy, life threatening pancreatitis, gastroparesis and immunodeficiency. She's had infections, G tubes and PICC lines to assist with her nutrition intake. After 3 years of dealing with all of this, she was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her treatment is still ongoing. She takes hormone blockers which cause a whole host of other issues that are severely impacting her everyday life. She gets infusions every 6 months in order to strengthen her already weakening bones, but seeing her, you would never know anything was wrong with her. She always has a smile on her face and faces each day with strength and perseverance! She's a fighter, but could definitely use prayer daily as she suffers and navigates through all of these medical challenges. 

Ipdate 9/4 Payden is constantly dealing with the struggles of a brain injury. she is currently also dealing with the aftermath of falling down the stairs. She is ok but she is shoke up from it. Her family also has their own struggles including her mom dealing with terrible back pain.
