This month, our family got to experience something amazing…
As you know, we have struggled to keep a healthy rhythm of life with all the changes happening AND trying to figure out how to continue Sy’s treatment in Cincinnati. We had been praying that someone would come along, see Sy’s situation, and help us fight the battle to keep him healthy. Well, that person showed up and we cannot believe what she has pulled off! More on her in a minute, but let us first tell you about the spectacular event that was held.
The silent auction was beyond words. We saw a huge group of people come together to put this on and make it so much fun! We thought that there would maybe be 10-20 nice items, but that expectation was a little low! As the coordinator of this event built momentum, more and more people saw how they could help and brought items to auction to help raise money for our little boy. Someone even went as far as to make our tables look like this was a Hollywood event! People donated a flat screen TV, sporting event tickets, autographed sportswear, Universal Orlando tickets, a week vacation at a huge private beach house, custom art, gift baskets, and so much more! Even multiple local merchants came from all over to donate their services or gift certificates. Over 60 items like this! Over $6000 was raised to be deposited into Sy’s trust for travel expenses & medical costs. Thank you to everyone who donated items, volunteered your time, participated in the bidding, and came to have a great time. This means more to us than you realize…
And here’s the person who has started all this love…
Her name is Meredith Rosser and she has blessed Sy (and all of us) beyond our dreams. Meredith put so many hours into making phone calls, working out logistics, networking, passing out flyers, posting on Facebook, driving everywhere to pick up items, hiring professionals, and so much more. There are not enough words to express the gratitude and love we have felt. Thank you so much, Meredith. You are our answer to prayer!
And here’s the best part…she’s not even done yet.
