Meal Train® for Kavi, Monicka, and Scott

Special Instructions

Hi all, Kavi's open heart surgery is quickly approaching so we are trying to support the family as best we can, with a plan in place to ease some household tasks, drop off meals, and make donations. This is a huge and stressful life event for the whole family and they are looking to you, their community for support. This is a hard ask for such caring, generous, and capable folks. They are also cognizant of our times- the strains on our finances, resources, time and energy are many and understand if this ask feels too big for you for any reason then please care for your needs and send Kavi and his parents warm, loving, healing thoughts. Ways to help: -Meal drop-off (SEE SPECIFIC DIETARY NEEDS BELOW) -Make a monetary donation. Scott and Monicka both have to take extended unpaid leaves from work, and the medical bills for a surgery like this are extreme. Donations can be made via PayPal at Monickak@gmail.com, Venmo at @Monicka-Koneski, or here via Mealtrain (though Mealtrain takes a percentage). Please choose “friends and family” so they can avoid fees as much as possible. You can also send a check in the mail to the address listed on this site. -Purchase some groceries. Once the family is settled at home, paying for a grocery delivery or doing a grocery drop-off will be very welcome. Instacart Gift Cards can be purchased here: https://www.instacart.com/gift-cards -Any cards, messages, or pictures for Kavi are certainly welcome to bring some cheer during a long recovery period of about 6 weeks. Sending a supportive message via text to Monicka 503) 319-8056 or Scott 971) 282-2347 is also a welcome way to remind them they are not alone. -Kavi will likely enjoy some quiet and less physically active playdates with classmates and friends once they are home and settled from the hospital. Any contribution is met with deep gratitude, and all of these acts truly add up to make a tremendous impact on an otherwise harrowing and extremely stressful experience. kindly, a loving friend of the family
