Secret Santa 12-7-2018 - a podcast by 97.1 ZHT

“Desarae and her husband Tavaras have four children. The youngest, Micah, has been diagnosed with a rare disease called cloves syndrome. Two years ago he was also diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. Within the last 3 months, he has also been diagnosed with another rare disease called insulin autoantibody syndrome and also a nephrotic syndrome. This little boy has spent many weeks in and out of the hospital and had many surgeries. With his Mom always by his side caring for him and his Dad constantly working just trying to make ends meet his sisters always seem to feel forgotten about. Desarae has been one of my best friends since 4th grade and these days she just can’t seem to get a break. Her mother was recently put on hospice care and has been given days to live. Desarae is her main caregiver and has spent many nights at the nursing home with her mother since that is the only time she can get time to go see her. Between caring for Micah and her mother and the rest of her family Desarae struggles to find any time for herself. She and her husband work soo hard just to be able to put food on the table and get basic needs for their children. Receiving a gift like this for Christmas would mean the world to them and their children. Especially little Micah who has had soo much going on these past few months.”
