ENSURING SAFE SLEEP SOLUTIONS ONE BED AT A TIME.

Shooting Star

JB cannot sit, crawl, or walk, but he can pivot while lying down. Because of his seizures and fragile brain, he has already experienced a brain bleed. JB currently sleeps in a P-Pod chair because a crib is no longer safe for him. Any seizure during the night puts him at significant risk of further injury. A seizure-safe medical bed would be life-changing for JB and his parents. Right now, his mom and dad take shifts staying awake through the night to monitor him and prevent injuries. A safety bed would give their family something they haven’t felt in a long time: peace of mind.
As JB’s mom shared: “Insurance companies see paperwork—but they don’t see the real struggles. The sleepless nights, the appointments, the faxes, the phone calls, the sacrifices. To other special-needs moms, I see you. I see the fear, the strength, the resilience. I would do every bit of it again for JB. He is a blessing. Heavenly Father knew we could care for him, and I’m forever grateful He entrusted us with our boy.”
JB loves being outside, watching the leaves and clouds during wheelchair walks, bubbles, lights, and Bluey. He brings light everywhere he goes.
Your support will help provide JB with the safety bed he urgently needs to keep him protected as his condition progresses. Thank you for helping ensure JB can sleep safely, surrounded by the love of his family.

JB is a bright, beautiful 2-year-old from Bolivar, MO. From the day he was born, his medical journey has been overwhelming and complex. He struggled to swallow, failed his newborn hearing tests, and by just three days old, he began having seizures. Since then, JB has received a long list of diagnoses, including a rare brain disease in the leukodystrophy category, chromosome 14q32 duplication syndrome, progressive hearing loss, developmental delays, feeding intolerance, and more. His prognosis is extremely serious.

Brinley

Currently Funding for...

Brinley is an energetic and joyful 9-year-old from Maywood, MO who loves swinging, jumping on her trampoline, bubbles, swimming, and going to school. She adores her tablet, her Fisher-Price puppy, and nothing makes her smile quite like the “Happy Birthday” song. Brinley brings so much light to those around her—but when nighttime comes, keeping her safe becomes a serious challenge. Brinley has Down syndrome, autism, and a severe intellectual disability. She struggles with elopement and intense nighttime behaviors that make sleep unsafe without constant precautions. In the past, Brinley has left the house—once entering a neighbor’s home and another time being found inside a vehicle. To keep her safe, her family must lock her bedroom at night.

​

Currently, Brinley sleeps in her own bed with a bed tent purchased from Amazon. While the tent has helped her feel secure and get more restful sleep, it is not built to last. Brinley has destroyed multiple tents, requiring replacement every few months—an ongoing cost that is not sustainable for her family. When the tent fails, nights are filled with banging on walls, floors, and doors, and no one in the home is able to rest.

A durable, enclosed safety bed would be life-changing for Brinley and her family. It would prevent dangerous elopement, reduce the risk of injury, support consistent and restful sleep, and give her caregivers true peace of mind—knowing she is safe and secure each night.

Your support will help provide Brinley with a bed she cannot destroy and a safe place where she can finally rest while her family does too. Together, we can help Brinley sleep safely and give her family the stability and peace they desperately need.
