This holiday season, little Landry — just three months old — won’t be surrounded by twinkling lights, toys, or the warmth of cozy family traditions. Instead, he will be in a hospital room, braving a critical surgery to remove his pancreas. 
Born with Congenital Hyperinsulinism, VACTERL association, and pulmonary hypertension, Landry has already faced more challenges in a few short months than most of us will in a lifetime. Each day has been a test of endurance, a battle for survival. 
But in the face of every setback, every sleepless night, every terrifying moment, his parents — Cody and Macie — have held fast to hope, faith, and the unwavering strength of a community that refuses to let them face this journey alone. 
Even in the midst of fear, Landry’s courage shines brighter than any Christmas light. His tiny hands, his determined heartbeat, and his will to fight remind us that miracles often come in the smallest forms. 
This surgery is the first major step toward giving Landry a future where he can breathe easier, grow stronger, and experience the kind of childhood every child deserves — full of laughter, wonder, and love.
This season, let’s wrap this little warrior in our prayers, our thoughts, and our collective hope. No child should face such battles alone, and every Christmas should bring a chance for healing, warmth, and dreams renewed. 
Landry’s fight is a reminder: even the tiniest hearts can carry the greatest bravery, and together, we can help light a path toward hope.
