recently our family’s life took a unexpected turn as my brother and sister in laws life was shaken up not only a car accident but also gods intervention! Sonseniquea (Bradley’s mom) recently shared on Facebook there story but I come here to show support help out when needed! First a new vehicle to get them to and from but also help with all the expenses that’ll soon be faced with in the near future! The power of prayer does mighty things even if you can’t donate keep there family in your thoughts and prayers thank you in advance for anything I know they’ll be forever grateful!!
I want to share something personal and incredibly difficult. It’s taken me some time to find the words—and even now, they feel heavy. But I’m ready to share, not for sympathy, but for prayer, support, and understanding.
About three weeks ago, our oldest son, Bradley, started feeling unwell at school. What we thought was a simple off day quickly escalated into seizures. Later that same day, Bradley, Savannah, and I were in a car accident that totaled our vehicle. What felt like chaos at the time turned out to be God’s intervention—because that crash led us straight to the hospital.
There, after a CT scan, doctors discovered something we never expected: a 6 cm mass on Bradley’s brain.
After 11 emotional days at Akron Children’s Hospital—countless labs, meetings, and eventually brain surgery to biopsy the mass—we were sent home to wait. A few days later, I received a call no parent should ever have to hear: the tissue showed tumor markers.
Bradley has been diagnosed with an astrocytoma, most likely a grade 3 or 4 brain tumor. It’s cancerous & inoperable. There are treatment options, but they are only temporary measures.
Those are incredibly hard words to say out loud.
This has turned our world upside down. We’re still trying to breathe through it. Still trying to find our footing. Still wrapping our minds around how quickly everything changed. But what I do know—without a doubt—is that God is here. He’s been here from the beginning. He’s still here now. And He will carry us through what’s ahead.
Bradley is strong. He’s brave. He’s still smiling. We know he is deeply loved and cared for by so many of you, so we’ll do our best to keep everyone updated on outcomes and changes. But for now, we’re home together as a family, doing our best to hold on to normalcy, peace, and faith.
At this time, we’ve only shared with Bradley the information we feel is appropriate for a 10-year-old to understand. We’re walking with him gently—answering his questions with care, protecting his heart, and being honest in ways he can process.
If you know us, love us, or simply believe in prayer—please keep our boy in your prayers. We are praying for healing, wisdom, comfort, and peace. And we appreciate every bit of love and support you can offer right now.
To those who have already come alongside us in this very difficult journey—your love, support, and prayers have meant everything.
With love and hope,
Nick, Sneaq & Family
