Hello everyone I know te page name is Sammy’s sweet treats but I am now going to go by Selling for Cyrus. And here is a little about Cyrus and why I’m changing the name. I would love to start taking orders, but want people to know I’m just starting back after a long break and I’m navigating this new normal with my family and to please be understanding.
✨ Meet Cyrus ✨
Cyrus is our miracle boy. After three miscarriages, God blessed us with him — our rainbow baby. But even before he was born, his fight for life began.
When I was 27 weeks pregnant, we were in a devastating car accident on the interstate at night. My five-year-old walked away unharmed, but I spent days in the hospital as doctors watched Cyrus’s heart rate drop dangerously low. They almost delivered him early, but he fought through and held on. At 39 weeks, he was born by C-section, appearing healthy.
For a while, everything seemed normal. But at six months, everything changed. The smiles stopped. He never rolled over. He never sat up. And then came the strange movements. At first, we thought it was just baby quirks, but they turned into seizures.
After days in the hospital and testing, we learned the truth: Cyrus has epilepsy. His brain shows abnormal activity that causes seizures and affects his development.
Genetic testing revealed something extraordinary. Cyrus has a change in his MEF2C gene — a gene critical for brain growth, movement, and learning. His exact change has never been documented in another person. That means Cyrus is truly the first of his kind. His life is teaching doctors something new, and paving the way for other children who may one day face the same diagnosis.
Today, Cyrus battles:
🔹 Epilepsy – unpredictable seizures that affect his brain and body
🔹 Global Developmental Delay – he’s learning skills like rolling, sitting, and eating much more slowly
🔹 Hypertonia (High Muscle Tone) – stiff muscles that make movement difficult
🔹 Feeding Difficulties – eating and gaining strength is an everyday challenge
🔹 Respiratory Issues – illnesses hit him harder and affect his breathing
Through it all, Cyrus continues to amaze us. His smile lights up the room, his strength inspires everyone who meets him, and his story is proof that miracles are real.
Cyrus is more than a diagnosis — he is our miracle, our joy, and our teacher. Please continue to pray for:
💙 Strength for his body and mind
💙 Wisdom for his doctors
💙 Peace for our family
