UPDATE 1/10/24: On December 25, 2024 Bailey was called home to be with Jesus. 
My heart is shattered. I can’t find the words. I try to type them but nothing can express the way my heart is breaking for my sister Sarah and nieces. The loss of a child is something no parent should ever have to go through. I’ve set up a meal train for one month to help her and the girls. Please consider donating a meal or offering any kind of support to their family during this tragic time. And please continue to surround this beautiful family in so much prayer as they navigate the unthinkable. A huge THANK YOU to everyone who has selflessly helped in anyway. - Victoria 
___________________
As many of you know my sister Sarah’s son Bailey was diagnosed with Infantile Tay-Sachs, a rare and terminal disease at 15 months old. Bailey is now four years old. He is home on palliative care with hospice. Over the years Bailey has shown us how strong he is while fighting the inevitable. Life for Sarah and her kids have been so rewarding yet challenging at the same time. Sarah has always done her best to make sure her children led a typical life the best she could despite the challenges they have been faced with. And have always done their best to make sure Bailey was included one way or another in whatever they were doing.  
The past couple of months Bailey has significantly declined. He is now 100% oxygen dependent, and hospice is making him as comfortable as they possibly can. We do not know how much time Bailey has left with us. I want to say that every day we have with him is a blessing as he has exceeded his life expectancy. With him declining as much as he has, that comes with many challenges to their day-to-day life. With Bailey needing 24hr care and his mom Sarah being his primary caretaker. It has been weighing on her to be able to have the time to prepare and cook meals for herself and the girls. 
We would like to help alleviate the stress of preparing meals for Sarah and her daughters Bristol and Kassidy during this challenging time by providing nutritious meals. If you are unable to provide a meal, please continue offering them comfort, strength, prayers and the support they need.
Thank you to everyone. Words cannot express how grateful we are for all of the love and support.

This e-gift card allows access to all Walmart products. Useful for anyone anywhere.
Why We Love This Gift: We love this gift because it offers access to things like pharmacies when a family you love is in need. Many aspects of surgical care are not covered by insurance - these expenses can add up. This is especially true when a family is on a fixed income. Items like canes, walkers, surgical gauze, and more - can all be underwritten in this way. (Bonus: It respects, as well, the privacy and dignity of the person you love). Supplements that are doctor recommended (always check) can also be covered in this manner. Walmart also just has everything so for someone who has lost their job it enables them to get what they need without spelling it all out. People are proud.
What To Express in Your Card: You'd do exactly the same. xo

Bearaby's Weighted Blanket for Kids is made with nothing but layer upon layer of soft, organic cotton.
Highly breathable, wonderfully cozy, and utterly calming. 
Let's look at how the sleep-loving, kid hugging weighted blanket for kids, the Nappling can help your child:
<ul>
<li>Better sleep: If your child has trouble calming down at nap or bedtime, a Nappling could be just what they need. Weighted blankets provide a natural, soothing tool to help kids settle to sleep easier and bring about deeper, better sleep.</li>
<li>Better focus: A child who is well-rested finds it easier to stay on-task. A weighted blanket can help kids stay focused, which helps them flourish in their academic and social development.</li>
<li>Calmer hearts, minds, and bodies: A weighted blanket can help ease child anxiety. It's a simple, drug-free method that calms a child's anxious thoughts, feelings, and that growing little body.</li>
<li>Treats symptoms of autism and ADHD: Weighted blankets can help children (and adults) with autism or ADHD cope with symptoms of sensory overload and hyperactivity.</li>
</ul>
Why We Love It: We love this gift because, during times of grief or anxiety, a weighted blanket can provide a biological cue for children to relax. The feeling of a weighted blanket "hug" signals to the brain that it's time to quiet their thoughts and slide into sleep - making it a fantastic gift to parents with children of any age.
What To Express In Your Card: I know how stressful things have been for you and the little one(s). I hope this blanket offers them some solace during times of stress. Please, call me if you need anything else - I love you!
