The Fundraising Page of Kelsey Easterwood

Meet Kelsey! She was born on June 1, 2015, weighing only 2lb 8oz, and spent 3 months in the NICU. During that time, we discovered that Kelsey was born with a condition called Mosaic Trisomy 9. This extremely rare chromosomal abnormality affects less than 200 people in the world. Given the rarity of Kelsey’s condition, we do not know how it will affect her life. To date she has endured 3 surgeries, several hospital stays, and many health concerns. Her current challenges include feeding, walking, scoliosis and overall muscle development. She is truly a miracle to even be here – she brings so much light to our life and she blesses our family every day! After her diagnosis, we applied for her to attend the Little Light House, a Christian preschool for children with special needs. Kelsey is now in her 2nd year at The Little Light House. It is an amazing facility made up of incredible teachers, therapists and administrators that are passionate about providing quality care to special needs children. They love and value her, and Kelsey adores them. Kelsey gets so excited when we walk into her class. And as her parents, this gives us joy and peace knowing our little girl is learning every day and is receiving this kind of care and love. Kelsey will be participating in Mini-Laps on October 12, 2019. During this event, she will get to complete a lap around the school track. Last year, she completed her lap in a stander. During her lap, an announcer tells everyone all about Kelsey. It’s an incredibly sweet and touching moment for the children, their families and the staff. We would be humbled and honored if you would sponsor Kelsey for her lap. Donations can be made directly from this page. Because the school is a 501(c)(3) organization, all donations are tax deductible. The school relies completely upon these donations and allows children like Kelsey to attend tuition free. We are grateful for your role in our journey and for your support of The Little Light House. Thank you to everyone that has interceded in prayer for our family over the last 4 years, as we strive to help Kelsey flourish and develop. In Christ, The Easterwoods Brian, Connie, Katelyn, Kinley, and Kelsey
