About Avera's personality

She is the sweetest little girl! She loves everyone, and doesn’t know a stranger. She is in love with her new baby brother and is the biggest helper with him. She loves to play and make new friends and talk to anyone who will talk back! She is super funny too. In September 2024 she choked on a grape and was without oxygen 15 minutes, causing brain damage. She has worked hard in therapy to bounce back!

What are Avera's favorite activities?

She loves playing with toys, her baby brother, and other children. She likes playing dress up, watching movies, and playing with pretend food. During the summer months she will swim as much as she can! She loves to play outside with bubbles and chalk, and go to the park. She LOVES spending time with her grandma and papa, and the rest of her family. She can brighten anybody’s day, and steal anybody’s heart!

How would $25,000 impact your family?

That would allow us to put a downpayment on a house as right now we are just renting. We would love the extra money in order to get our forever home for our family. The money would also help the medical/ equipment bills that insurance will not cover. I am just now finally able to go back to work since Avera’s choking accident in September 2024. We don’t not have much saved up after this accident as i was not able to work for almost an entire year.
