Krista and Jay Price’s world has been turned upside down as their young daughter bravely faces Leigh’s Disease, a rare mitochondrial disease. This devastating diagnosis has caused her cells to stop functioning properly, and her condition is now rapidly declining. Doctors have shared that they don’t know how long she has left. It could be as much as six months or as little as about one month. The Prices are doing everything they can to make her remaining time as comfortable and meaningful as possible, while also caring for their other child and supporting each other through unimaginable heartbreak.
The family has been traveling frequently to the Cleveland Clinic for specialized care, and the costs are overwhelming. Medical bills, travel expenses, groceries, and home health care are adding up quickly. Krista is balancing hospital visits, caring for her daughter at home, and trying to keep daily life going for her husband and other child, Henry. The emotional and financial strain is immense, and they need support from their community now more than ever.
Every donation will go directly toward immediate medical bills, travel costs, groceries, and home health care for their daughter. Your support will help ease the burden on Krista and Jay, allowing them to focus on cherishing every moment with their daughter. Please consider helping this family during their most difficult time.
**If you have children who know Ellie or Henry personally, please take care about sharing too many details with them. This is hard to explain to most people, it’s especially difficult for children to understand. The family doesn’t want Ellie or Henry to know any scary details at this time. Please handle this information with care. If you have questions-reach out to Krista or Jay so they can provide the buffer that’s needed.
