Story
Hello, our names are Marcus and Danielle and we are reaching out to ask for support for our brave 4 year old son, Marcus Jr.
Recently, Marcus Jr. was diagnosed with Nephrotic Syndrome, a rare and serious kidney disorder that causes his body to lose vital proteins through his urine. This has led to swelling, discomfort, fatigue, and future weight gain from medications he will need to manage his condition. Marcus was admitted to the hospital and has been under constant medical supervision ever since.
Despite everything he’s been through, Marcus remains so strong and resilient. He’s been so brave during treatments and the difficult adjustments to his daily life.
As his parents, we love him beyond words and are doing everything possible to help him. Marcus works hard to support our family, while I am almost 7 months pregnant and caring for Marcus and his 1 year old little brother. The financial strain is beginning to grow, with missed work and traveling to out of town specialists.
This GoFundMe will help cover:
• Travel expenses for specialist visits
• Medical expenses not covered by insurance
• Prescription medications
• Clothing to fit Marcus’s needs due to weight
• Lost income from time away from work
• Childcare for our youngest while we need to be away
Your support, whether 5, 50 or just sharing this campaign, means the world to our family. Marcus Jr. is such a bright, strong little boy, and with your help, we can ensure he gets the care and support he needs.
Please keep Marcus Jr. in your thoughts and prayers as he continues this fight.
Thank you from the bottom of our hearts,
Marcus & Danielle Baron
