Gannon is a sweet, resilient 22-year-old from Republic, Missouri, who has a way of brightening the lives of everyone around him. His smile is contagious, and he finds joy in life's simple moments—reading books, taking walks, spending time outdoors, playing with musical and light-up toys, and listening to his favorite music. These activities bring him comfort, happiness, and opportunities to connect with those who love him.
Gannon has Pallister-Killian syndrome, a rare genetic condition that affects many aspects of his development, along with epilepsy. He experiences seizures, has low muscle tone, is nonverbal, and uses a wheelchair for mobility. While he communicates differently, his family and nurses know his personality shines through every smile, laugh, and shared moment.
Although Gannon currently sleeps in a modified standard bed with padded sides, it simply isn't designed to meet his medical needs. Even with padding, he can still injure his hands, feet, arms, legs, or head during seizures. The bed's frame also creates spaces where his limbs could become trapped as he frequently repositions throughout the night. In addition, his current bed cannot elevate his head, which is important during illness and for feeding, suctioning, and other daily care needs.
A SafeSleep Bed would be life-changing for Gannon and his family. Its enclosed safety rails would provide greater protection during seizures and prevent entrapment, while its electronic positioning features would make caregiving safer and allow his family to elevate the bed when needed for his health and comfort. Most importantly, it would give Gannon a bed that is truly designed for his unique needs—offering greater safety, better care, and priceless peace of mind.
Your generosity can help make that possible. Every gift, no matter the amount, brings Gannon one step closer to sleeping safely in a bed built to protect him.
❤️ Together, we can help give Gannon the safe sleep he deserves.

Oliver is a fun-loving, energetic 7-year-old from Steele, Missouri, who keeps everyone on their toes. He's wild in the best way—full of energy from the moment he wakes up until the moment he finally falls asleep. Whether he's running, spinning, sharing his thoughts on just about everything, or dreaming up his next adventure, Oliver is always on the move.
Oliver has Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, and Sensory Processing Disorder. He is very sensitive to sound and touch, making it difficult for his body and mind to settle at the end of the day. Despite these challenges, Oliver is incredibly smart, caring, and affectionate. He loves playing baseball, swimming, playing games, collecting Pokémon, and pretending to be his favorite superheroes.
As much as his family treasures his adventurous spirit, it also brings serious safety concerns. Oliver is an eloper, meaning he has a strong instinct to run and doesn't recognize dangerous situations. At night, his parents live with the constant fear that he could leave the house or wander through the home while everyone is asleep. They've installed alarm systems, added extra locks, and tried every safety measure they can think of, but restful sleep remains out of reach. They aren't just trying to help Oliver sleep—they're trying to keep him safe.
A Cubby Bed will give Oliver a secure, calming space designed for his unique sensory needs. The enclosed design will help him feel safe and regulated while protecting him from wandering during the night. Instead of ending each day with anxiety and exhaustion, Oliver and his family can finally experience the peace that comes with safe, restorative sleep.
Your support can make that possible.
Every donation, no matter the amount, brings Oliver one step closer to the safety and comfort of a Cubby Bed. Together, we can give this sweet, adventurous little boy the safe place he deserves to rest—and give his family the priceless gift of peace of mind.
💙 Help us bring safe sleep home to Oliver.

Dixie is a sweet, giggly 3-year-old from Aurora, Missouri, who has a way of making people smile wherever she goes. Despite everything her little body has been through, Dixie continues to find reasons to laugh every single day. She loves playing peekaboo, making people laugh, and giving her baby dolls lots and lots of kisses. One of her favorite things in the world is hospital badges—so much so that she has a badge of her very own!
Dixie has a rare SMARCA2 gene mutation along with epilepsy, neurological impairment, sleep apnea, chronic aspiration, severe GERD, a floppy airway, and Chiari malformation extending from C1 to C2. She has already undergone brain surgery to address her Chiari malformation. Dixie is also experiencing progressive chronic lung disease and is losing lung capacity. After spending much of the last two months in and out of the hospital because of aspiration and unexplained periods of unconsciousness, her medical team is preparing for a tracheostomy in the near future.
Dixie is not yet able to walk or crawl, and she has very poor body tone and no sense of danger. Because she cannot safely reposition herself, nighttime can be especially dangerous. She has recently learned how to get herself over the side rail of her current bed and has fallen onto her head. She also frequently has seizures at night and experiences significant oxygen desaturations.
Dixie requires oxygen and continuous pulse oximeter monitoring while she sleeps. She chokes on her own oral secretions as many as 6–8 times a night and frequently aspirates. She will grab anything within reach—including sheets—and can pull them around her face or body. She also puts objects in her mouth without understanding the danger, creating a serious choking risk.
For Dixie’s family, nighttime means constant vigilance. Her mom needs to be able to see and respond to changes in her oxygen levels, seizures, aspiration, or breathing as quickly as possible. A safety bed would provide Dixie with a secure environment designed around her unique needs while giving her mom the peace of mind to know that Dixie is protected throughout the night.
Dixie has already faced more medical challenges in her three little years than most people face in a lifetime. Yet somehow, through all of it, she still giggles. She still plays peekaboo. She still loves her baby dolls. And she still finds ways to make the people around her laugh.
Now, we want to help give this sweet girl a safer place to sleep—and give her family the opportunity to rest a little easier, too. 💜
