As many of you know, Lucas is beginning a challenging part of his medical journey, with two surgeries in August and two more in September. The months ahead will bring recovery, extra care, frequent trips between St. Petersburg and Tampa, and time away from work. Many of you have reached out and asked how you can help support the Gorta family, so we wanted to share what would be most helpful during this season. There may be times when they are not up for visitors or able to plan ahead, and having the flexibility to use support when they need it would make things a little easier for their family or support with gas for the many appointments. Which is why we created a give in kind for those who feel led to help bring support. Most importantly, please pray for Lucas. Pray for successful surgeries, complete healing, wisdom for his medical team, and strength and peace for our family. Thank you for loving Lucas, praying for him, and standing beside the Gorta family. 💙
Bringing meals is not ideal during this time as the family may not be up for visitors. Although no support is necessary, it’s very much appreciated while they navigate this time with Lucas.
