We are finding our way through something we never expected to face. As a family, we’re learning, growing, and leaning on our faith more than ever. I’m sharing this because community matters, and your love and support mean so much to us.
We recently learned that our little girl has polycystic kidney disease and tuberous sclerosis. Polycystic kidney disease (PKD) is a chronic, genetic disease causing the uncontrolled growth of cysts in the kidney, often leading to kidney failure. I won’t dive into too many more details here because, to be honest, it’s overwhelming and frightening, but over the past few months we've faced numerous doctor’s appointments, an ER visit by ambulance, and countless sleepless nights as we try to find the best way to help our sweet baby. It's been a challenge to maintain some sense of normalcy for our family, but I hold on to one certainty—God has a plan.
Unfortunately, there is no cure for PKD. While there won’t be a Walk for PKD this year, the need for awareness, research, and support remains just as urgent. This is why I walk. This is why I advocate. This is why I won’t stop believing that a cure is possible. I’m humbly asking for your support through a donation to help fund research and move us closer to a cure. A CURE is my finish line.
If donating isn’t possible (which is completely understandable), your prayers would mean the world to us. Thank you so much for loving and supporting our family during this time.
Sincerely,
Tiffany
My child is a #PKDWarrior
