Levi & Lainey are beautiful, sweet, spunky, dancing, 22 month old twins. They are the son & daughter of Scott and Meagan Chisholm; the brother & sister of Connor and Charley Chisholm. On November 28th, they were involved in a horrific accident and were admitted to the ICU at Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital in Indianapolis, Indiana. The Chisholm family immediately engaged their family & friends to PRAY! Within a matter of hours, it became immediately and overwhelmingly apparent that Levi and Lainey inspired an international movement of powerful prayer. They have angels on Earth, all around, lifting them up and providing their family with the strength needed to survive this unimaginable tragedy.
Lainey was discharged on December 6th and is expected to make a full recovery, but Levi still has a long road to full recovery. He is miraculously breathing on his own, but he has significant brain damage. Immediately after Levi is discharged from Peyton Manning Children's Hospital, he will start Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) with Dr. Paul Harch from the LSU Health Sciences Center at the New Orleans School of Medicine. Pending those results, the Chisholms will also travel to Houston, Texas where they will explore the potential for Levi to receive innovative stem cell treatments.
Levi's treatments will require a significant amount financial investment. For example, Medical Transport will cost $10,000-$15,000 per one-way trip, which covers the cost of fuel and ambulance transport. IF ANYONE IS ABLE TO PROVIDE THE CHILSHOLMS WITH A CORPORATE SPONSORSHIP FOR AIR TRAVEL EXPENSES, THE DONATION FOR THE FUEL EXPENSES CAN BE CONSIDERED A TAX WRITE OFF. The HBOT treatments are expected to cost $12,000... stem cell treatments much more. There are also expenses associated with extended-stay lodging & hiring a nurse to travel with the Chisholm family.
Prayer remains the absolute, one-and-only request of the Chisholms. They have selflessly not asked for financial support through this situation…only prayer. However, as awareness of Levi & Lainey’s fight has grown exponentially, so have the requests to provide incremental support. Go Fund Me provides an opportunity to converge and bring these generous offers to life. Funds raised will be used by the Chisholms to support the full recovery of Levi. Any funds not used for their recovery will be donated to families who need support following tragic accidents such as this one. This is a tremendously selfless demonstration from the Chisholms, one of giving back and paying forward the love & generosity they continue to receive.
Everyone who prays is asked to pray for Levi's full recovery. Please, please do not stop praying for a miracle. We have HOPE and FAITH that Levi will be restored, such that he can rejoin his twin sister, Lainey, and his entire family in full health.
