Charity
Los Angeles Fetal Surgery Program
Skyler has identical twins with his wife Nicole named Carter and Hudson, and they are the loves of his life, along with his other two children, Kylie and Jadyn! But Carter and Hudson nearly didn't make it out of their mom's tummy. They suffered from a rare birth syndrome called Twin To Twin Transfusion Syndrome (also known as TTTS). It is a difficult subject for Skyler, but he likes to tell the story and tackle it head-on by helping raise funds for new parents who may not be able to afford the necessary surgeries to save their newborns' lives. Skyler would be honored if you considered giving to the program that saved his sons’ lives, which is the LAFSP, so that people without funds may be able to have the same live-saving surgery that Skyler’s insurance afforded him to have for his twins.
