Beneath every uniform stands a family’s strength. For Sergeant Gabby and her partner Tyler that strength was tested in a way no parent should ever endure. At just six days old their son Bertie was diagnosed with heart failure. Open-heart surgery was his only chance of survival. Overwhelmed by fear, financial strain, and emotional uncertainty, Gabby made one life-changing call to SSAFA.
