"Liam’s Journey: Conquering CP, One cookie at a Time!"

It’s difficult to imagine that a single day could change the entire course of your life, but for us, it was that one moment when our son, Liam, was born. His birth was not what we had planned or hoped for—it was traumatic, and it left us facing challenges we never expected. But out of this unimaginable experience, we’ve found hope and a way forward. This is the story of our son’s journey and how we turned our family’s need for financial support into a business—Liam’s Cookie Company.

The Birth of Liam: An unexpected start 

Liam’s birth was anything but smooth. What should have been an easy day since He was our fourth child, quickly became a life-altering event. Deciding to Join us at 27 weeks and weighing in at 2 lbs when born, Liam fought with everything he has to live, doctors and nurses worked tirelessly to stabilize him, and our world turned upside down in an instant. It was a fight for his life from the start.

The trauma from his birth left Liam with a brain bleed that damaged his brain and left him to live with cerebral palsy and hydrocephalus for the rest of his life.  Something that would require ongoing medical care, therapy, and surgeries. As parents, it was overwhelming to process the emotional and financial burden that came with his condition. But we made a promise to him: we would do everything in our power to give him the best life possible, no matter what it took.

Turning Our Struggles into Something Sweet: The Birth of Liam’s Cookie Company

As we navigated Liam’s medical journey, one thing became clear—medical bills were piling up quickly. Even with insurance, there were numerous out-of-pocket expenses that seemed impossible to manage. That’s when the idea for Liam’s Cookie Company came to me.

Baking had always been a love of mine—a form of comfort and creativity. I knew there was a way I could turn this passion into something bigger, something that could help us pay for Liam’s medical expenses. I started baking for friends, family, and local businesses, slowly building a brand around Liam’s story and the love we put into each batch.

Why Liam’s Cookie Company?

Liam’s Cookie Company isn’t just a business—it’s a way for me to support my son while also spreading joy through something as simple as an Argentine cookie. Each cookie we bake carries a little piece of our heart and our journey. It’s a way for us to share the love and strength we’ve found in our family, while also raising funds to cover Liam’s medical costs.

Every cookie purchase goes directly to supporting Liam’s treatments, therapies, and everything he needs to continue to thrive. It’s been a bittersweet yet empowering experience for our family—turning our struggles into something that not only helps us, but also brings joy to others.
