Testimonies from our Families we help.

---

 My daughter has been fighting cancer for 18 months. You have continuously helped my family be able to afford emergency hospital stays, these long trips across multiple states to Texas for her scans and appointments at MD Anderson and everything in between to help our daughter fight cancer that we otherwise would not have been able to do. You guys have been our life line for our trips to Texas for everything our daughter needs. Thank you guys so much.  Love

  Landen was born on September 15, 2023. He was sick and unfortunately had to spend a few days in the nursery.  When I was able to hold and feed my little guy I knew something was wrong. Call it mother instinct. When he was a month old he had just got back to his birth weight. That was when he was admitted into the hospital for the first time.  He spent 2.5 weeks in the hospital and they had no answers.  We left the hospital feeling defeated.  Landen had so many appointments with different specialist.  No one knew what was going on. They were running test and coming up with nothing.  While we waited for an answer he was hospitalized an additional 6 more times. Finally on his 7th admission he received an NG tube because he was severely under weight.  They did one last test called an empty studying.  And we finally found out answer that we were so desperately seeking. Landen has gastroparesis alone with a few other diagnosis.  Unfortunately gastroparesis is uncureable and it's an awful condition. It causes pain and trouble eating. Because his stomach doesn't process food the same way ours do. Being born with this condition is very rare and people normally develop it later in life after having surgery or diabetes.  So unfortunately the only doctor that will see him is located in Cincinnati. My friend told me about Meredith miracles and I am so happy she did. To know that there is help when we need it is amazing.  Landen has a lot of appointments all over the place and unfortunately I'm a single mom and when I have to carry him to appointments or if he gets hospitalized I miss days of work. And while I'm sitting in the hospital worried about my son, bills and life. It is nice to know that there are resources out there that will help. I appreciate everything Meredith miracles has done for my son and I. While I know my son has a long journey ahead of him its nice to know we have people in our corner helping us and cheering him on. Love Elena

  Being 22weeks pregnant with no notice that I would have a preterm labor. My son was born breeched at UAB Women and Infant being told my son would have 10% chance of survival my mind was everywhere. But prayers and faith of a mustard seed was my map to majority everything needed as well as a good social worker with support. LaRandrick was diagnosed with stage 4 brain bleed, BPD (bronchial pulmonary disease) , micropreemie and delayed milestones. Spending 7 months in the NICU job begging you to come back to work because they stopped my paycheck. I chose being by my baby bedside then my job because it's not important as being an advocate for my little fighter that chose to come early. From asking my parents and asking my social worker for financial assistance. Meredith Miracles is actually what they are a miracle that helped me during my dark times. Every dollar helps as long as you know how to manage in hard times. As of today I’m appreciative of the support Meredith Miracles has done for my family and I. Love  Jernisha 

   My journey with Meredith miracle started the day my baby went into the NICU which was December 16th of 2023 he did not breathe the first 9 Minutes of his life thankful and grateful for the doctors at Southeast Medical Center and Dothan Alabama for bringing my baby back he had to go to the NICU and he spent 10 days at Montgomery Baptist and he goes every 3 months to Birmingham to have neurology checks. You all have been so grateful to me from helping me out from the time my baby went to the NICU until now with him still going to appointments in Birmingham and I am so grateful and appreciative for it thank you.  Love Trai-Vana  

 Meredith Miracles has been a life saver for my family. Meredith Miracles relives the stress of wondering I will have gas money to get my child to her next appointment. Their application is simple and straightforward. They call and check on you and your family periodically just to make sure there is nothing more that you need assistance with. Meredith Miracles staff is friendly and very professional. Keep doing what you all are doing!! Love  Kewonder 

 In 2022 on the 23rd of march, my daughter Sophia was diagnosed with RMS cancer to the foot and right lung. She started chemo on the 9th of April. That night of starting it, she took a bad turn. On the 10th, she had to be paralyzed to where she could be have a breathing tube put in her. The 15th of April, she had to get a drainage tube to her right lung where it helped get the fluid out of her that was being caused by the cancer. For the next months until Feb 2023, she was told that she was cured. Now that we are Sep, we are facing an incurable cancer.  My daughter will go through chemo until her body can't handle it anymore. Then we'll have to face the next steps for my little Iris.  Love Emil

 We did not find out about Meredith's Miracles until about a year into our journey.  I was upset no one had told us before that, but the help we have received since then has been a God Send.  There have been so many times that I have wondered if I would be able to get Zack and Dale to an appointment and back home and Meredith's Miracles is the reason we can 100% of the time.  We have a lot of appointments.  We live 4 hours from COA, I try to group together as many as I can.  Sometimes that is out of my control because the doctors only have clinics on certain days and of course, they never match up.  But, I can scrape one thing off my plate knowing that Meredith's Miracles is always there for us. Love Patricia

 I would like to thank Meredith Miracles for everything that they do to help us as well as other families. I found out that my 6 year old had cancer in September of 2022. I had to stop working and was eventually let go from my job because I had to stay home and take care of my son. With funds being low, Meredith Miracles have helped us with gas and food for travel to Birmingham. We normally have to go every Thursday so I'm so thankful for them. If you're able to donate, please consider Meredith Miracles. Every little bit counts. God bless. Love Ashley

  Our daughter, Katherine, was born with no known medical issues. But when she was a few months old, we noticed she was not meeting her developmental milestones. At 6 months of age, Katherine had her first seizure. It was at that point we knew there was something underlying. After years of uncontrolled epilepsy, severe developmental delay, and a host of other complex issues, Katherine was accepted into a whole genome study with UAB and Hudson Alpha Institute for Biotechnology. It was through this study that we received a diagnosis. Katherine has a de novo (not from either parent) mutation in the H3F3A gene. She is only 1 of 42 known cases in the world. Katherine also has Type 1 diabetes. She is fed through a g-tube. She receives therapy services at our home through our local school system since she is too medically fragile to attend regular school. We travel to Birmingham for all of her specialist appointments, which happens about every other month, but sometimes monthly. We try to see as many specialists as possible during each trip, so we always have to stay in a hotel. These trips can be very expensive, so the assistance we receive from Meredith's Miracles is a tremendous help! Having a child with severe special needs is a heavy burden- emotionally, physically, and financially. Meredith's Miracles helps ease the financial burden for our family, and we are forever grateful! Love Jessie

 My son Samuel was born with imperforate anus, coartation of his aorta, 2 minor holes in his heart, and a teathered spinal cord. These birth defects cause him to have a 15 day stay in the NICU with surgery for a colostomy at 5 days old. The colostomy was 1 of 3 surgery's to correct the imperforate anus. He has also undergone heart surgery to repair the coartation of his aorta. We are patiently waiting to get these next two surgeries over with. With these medical conditions comes lots and lots of doctor appointments which means we are driving 4 1/2 hours round trip one to two times a week. We are so beyond grateful for such special people who are willing to go the extra mile in helping us and other families in such difficult times.  Love Kelsea
