In 2022 my son, Lt Dallas Ransom, US Space Force, suffered an AVM rupture at Keesler Air Force base in Mississippi. He was taken by Lifeflight to Mobile, Alabama where he underwent the first of eight lifesaving brain surgeries. This stabilized him, and he was later transported to Barrow Neurological Insitute in Phoenix, Arizon where Dr. Michael Lawton and his team performed a virtually unsurviable brain surgery. Dallas was paralzed on his right side, unable to speak or swallow. He has battled back over the years, even in the face of a huge setback in May of 2024.

Now he is medically stable and in the rebuilding phase of his life back in his hometown in Oergon. In March of 2025 he utilized a VA loan and purchased his first home. The very next week he received an exoskeleton robotic arm. He continues to do hours of work everyday to regain his independence and life.

Many people have asked how they can support Dallas; and for that we are very grateful. Below are some active areas of support that Dallas could use. Our community has been incredible and it is with grate appreciation that we accept your gifts of time, well wishes, letters, and financial support.

Thank you for being part of our journey!

Sincerly, Erin (& Dallas)
