Sadie
From Sadie's Mother, Shauna
Christmas 2017 was a little merrier for our family. My youngest daughter, Sadie, was diagnosed with Spinal Muscular Atrophy with Respiratory Distress, or SMARD. Every day she lives is a miracle with this rare disease. A sweet friend through social media was able to give our name to the Cre’Von LeBlanc Foundation. We were blessed at Christmas time a huge box packed full of gifts for Sadie and our other two older children. We can’t thank them enough for how special it made our family feel to know that people all the way from Florida shared their generosity for us here in Texas. We are a football loving family. We have now become new fans of the Chicago Bears, with a special eye on #22
Stella
From Stella's Mother, Sarah
A little about our family . . .
Our daughter Stella has Spinal Muscular Atrophy (the child version of ALS)
Given weeks or months to live, we are thankful that Stella is 10 years old. HOwever, it has been a rollercoaster for a decade of being in and out of the hospital. Our two healthy boys have witnessed very serious medical emergencies at even the youngest of ages which no doubt has had an effect on them. Stella has endured a lot medically over the past two years in particular but we have been granted miracle after miracle with her health and are thankful. We are so thankful for your foundation having adopted our family this past Christmas! It brought us so much joy to have an NFL player and his foundation thinking of us at Christmastime. May you be blessed for being a blessing to so many others!
With love,
The Turnbulls
Travis, Sarah, Treyton, Stella and Sayer
