💙 Urgent Prayer & Help Request 💙

We’re needing some extra prayers right now. An unexpected emergency came up, and we’re currently stranded in Dallas after losing our car. We have an important appointment today and need to find a rental as soon as possible to get there and make it home safely.

We fell behind on our car note but did everything we could to stay current until now. We’re trying to see if we can either get the car back or cover a rental for the next few days while we figure out our next steps.

If you’re able to help — even a little — it would mean the world to us. Every bit will go directly toward getting transportation so we can safely get to and from Azik’s appointments and back home.

Please also keep us in your prayers for provision, safety, and favor. And we kindly ask for privacy as we navigate this situation and do our best to stay grounded in faith. 💛

💙 Azik’s Heart Journey Update 💙

Off to Dallas today as we head to Azik’s first biweekly appointment tomorrow— praying everything comes back better than last time and for safe travels and healing as we go. 🙏

🦽💛 We were so blessed by an angel who donated the full amount for Azik’s travel wheelchair — we got it last week, and he loves it!

We still need support with donations and meals as we prepare to move back home, restart therapy, and search for a new place. It’s a lot, but God has our back, and He keeps sending the right people to help us.

Thank you all for the continued prayers and love — we feel every bit of it. 💙✨

We’ll link in the comments where you can donate or support directly. 🫶

Help Us Reach Our $2,500 Goal for Azik’s Care and Our Miracle Season 💛

We’re raising up to $2,500 to help with travel, lodging, and MOVING as we begin another round of appointments and care for Azik in Dallas admist all of this .

We have a home in Dallas throughout January, though we’ll be able to come home between visits and stay gor of the month God willing — such a blessing, even in a hard season. With moving, being out of work, and trying to keep things running from home, this support means more than words.

Every prayer, every share, and every dollar helps us stay close to his care team and focused on his healing. 💛

🌟 Azik’s Checkup Update! 🌟
We just got back from Azik’s appointment and he’s doing so well a littlehiccup but nothing throwing him off track— I couldn’t be more proud of him and so thakful to God! 🐾💛 Every milestone feels like such a victory.

On a different note, life threw us a curveball: our landlord has unexpectedly decided to sell our home 😑. Needing a large 3-4 bedroom home available in November sometime. We weren’t hoping to move until the new year but now needs to be as soon as possible — our current landlord has unexpectedly decided to sell the home 😑.

Ideally looking in the Cooper district, and would much prefer to rent directly from a personal landlord (we’ve heard too many rough stories about big rental companies).

Money is tight right now until I’m back to work, but we’re responsible tenants and can provide references.

💛 If you know of anything, we’d be incredibly grateful for any leads. I can chat budget and deposit in messages.

Trying to remain positive when life has been really hard these past few months. Well who am I kidding it’s been rough all year.

But for now, we’re just celebrating Azik’s amazing progress — that’s what really matters today! 🥰

💙 Azik Update:

🐾💙 Help us get Honey certified as Azik’s therapy + support pup!

As many of you know, Honey has been by Azik’s side through every step of his heart journey literaly before he got his heart we got her— offering comfort, calm, and so much joy during hospital stays, appointments, and long recovery days. We’ve seen how deeply she helps regulate and encourage him, especially with his autism and sensory needs.

Now, we’re hoping to take the next step by getting Honey into official therapy and service training so she can continue supporting Azik safely and effectively — including during travel and hospital visits.

This certification process and training program come with costs that insurance doesn’t cover, so we’re praying and working to raise the funds needed to get her started soon.

If you’d like to help, you can donate through our Cash App or Venmo, or even book one of our | Pay What You Can photo sessions with Mia Noel Studios| — all proceeds go toward Azik’s care, travel, and Honey’s training.

Every bit helps us keep building the tools and support our boy needs to thrive. Thank you for loving our little family through this journey. 💙🐶

Post-Transplant Recovery Update 💙 Month Two

What a month it’s been! Between Parvovirus, a few hospital stays, and multiple trips to the emergency department, this chapter has definitely kept us on our toes. The recovery will be a week or longer but through it all, Azik continues to amaze us with his strength, resilience, and unstoppable spirit. All glory to God 🙌🏽

If we can stay symptom-free until the end of this month, we’ll finally get to move home — something we’re praying for daily. 💛 This journey is far from over, but we’re taking it one step, and one miracle, at a time.

Being away from home for so long hasn’t been easy — especially balancing family visits and long stretches apart — but we’re holding tight to faith that the three-month mark will open the door to our next chapter.

This month, we’re launching a new “Pick a Date, Pay that Amount” calendar fundraiser, praying to black it out to help cover Azik’s wheelchair and travel needs before the month’s end. The last one had only a few days taken but it helped us get home — we’re so thankful for everyone who showed up for us! 🙏🏽

We’re also working with insurance to hopefully get flights covered for the many trips back and forth once we return home.

Thank you for every prayer, message, and act of love — it continues to carry us through. God is so faithful. 💙

Azik Update:

Yesterday was a day of recovery; for both Azik and myself. But surprisingly to us, the team decided even though parvovirus can last a few weeks, they believe Azik has been treated enough to safely finish recovering at home — and we couldn’t be more thankful. 💙

He’s been eating so well and has been in such a great mood today! In true Wolverine fashion — one IV treatment and one blood transfusion, and he’s already bouncing back. 💪

We did find out he’s anemic, so we’ll be focusing on the trending of his blood count and hemoglobin to help restore his energy. That was a big part of why he’d been so drained.

Praying that over the next week (or few weeks), he continues to feel strong and that all his labs start trending in the right direction. Grateful for every answered prayer and for everyone who continues to lift us up. 💜🙏

Azik Update 💙✨

Last night, Azik had both an IVIG infusion and a blood transfusion — and thankfully, everything went pretty well. 💉 He’s feeling a bit crummy and tired today and hasn’t eaten much, but the doctor said he’s looking good overall. 🙏 He’s getting some naps in today, so hopefully both of us can catch up on some rest — and maybe he’ll sleep a little better tonight. 😴

We’re now waiting on some bloodwork results to see what our next steps will be. Please keep those prayers coming — keep us uplifted, and yes… keep the coffee (and food!) donations coming too ☕🍴.

This mama is running on little to no sleep — he was up most of the night getting checked, and of course, I was right there with him. I just can’t rest knowing someone else is taking care of my baby if I can be by his side. 💜

Thank you all for your continued love, prayers, and support — they mean more than you know.

Azik Update 💙
We were finally admitted this afternoon, and Azik’s meds are set to start soon. As always, we are placing our trust in God and asking our tribe to join us in prayer — that there will be no reactions and that this medication will do exactly what it’s meant to do: heal.

Azik is in good spirits, even though he didn’t eat much dinner tonight. We are so grateful for those who have donated — your generosity is truly helping us during this season. Living in the hospital isn’t easy, but every step is worth it if it means getting him better. 💙🙏

Azik Update:
The results are back, and our team was right — Azik has parvovirus and will need to be admitted for a while. We won’t be admitted until this afternoon while they get a bed ready for us. This is not the news we were hoping for, but we know God is with us through every step.

We’d be so grateful for your continued prayers and love as we walk through this. If you’d like to support us in other ways, we are also welcoming coffee (24 hour Starbucks 🫠) meals via doordash or uber eats, donations, or any little encouragement you feel led to send.

Azik Update:
We don’t have results back yet from the big test. So far, everything they’ve checked — viral panels and other labs — has come back negative.

He was fever-free for about 2.5 hours before another one started creeping back up. He’s still very tired, but today he looked a little perkier thanks to fluids and feeds. We still have a ways to go, but we’re holding on in faith. ❤️🙏

🩵💙 late night Azik Update:
So appoiment today went as good as it could have gone. Echo looks beautiful; although his bloodwork showed his hemoglobin, blood count, iron, as well as a few other numbers are down even further than this weekend in the hospital.

Our team believes he may have Parvovirus (Pavo), a rare infection sometimes seen in post-transplant kiddos. Testing is ongoing, and results will take a few days. Right now, we’re focused on keeping him hydrated and nourished, with feedings throughout the day and night.

When Azik feels well, we’d love to take him out for fun activities and simple joys outside the hospital walls. With finances being tight right now, any donation — big or small — will go directly toward making these moments possible and giving him some normalcy and happiness. Every gift helps create special memories for our brave boy. ❤️

Please keep praying, sharing, and standing with us in faith. We love and appreciate every one of you.
