For Baby Liam Edworthy and family

Donation protected

Hello,

We are Paul and Abigail. We are Liam's parents. We also have a daughter named Camilla, a toddler. 

Last July 25, our beautiful baby boy had an interrupted Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS). He just turned four (4) months old the day before it happened.

Liam is extremely sick as you can imagine; most SIDS babies do not, unfortunately, make it. The doctors have told us his case is unique in that he did not die and his heart took very well to the CPR and the one dose of epinephrine they gave him that morning. Liam's heart restarted and has been beating unaided by blood pressure medications since that day our world came crashing down.

Our son is a fighter; all the organ damage and bodily injuries he sustained when his heart went into cardiac arrest have healed. However he remains in a coma because his brain was deprived of oxygen for an undetermined period of time. He is feeding now via a tube feeding. Although his brain is severely damaged, he showed signs of progress, as when the oxygen concentration on his ventilator was lowered so that he is breathing in almost the same air we are breathing.

We still cannot wrap our heads around this senseless thing that happened to our son. That boy came into this world 2 full months premature and yet beat the odds. He came out wailing and was huge! He weighed 6 pounds and 3 ounces and almost 19.5 inches in length. He never once needed oxygen when he came out and started feeding a few hours of being born.

At present, he is fighting two brain infections that are compromising his brain's ability to maintain his body temperature. He is still fighting. And we are still hoping and praying.

We seek your help for our hospital bills. We covet your prayers for our son and our family as well. We know all too well that ours is not going to be an easy journey. And the pain is unbearable. But we endure and survive day-to-day because  we want to give our son a fighting chance.

Please, pray for my Liam as often as the Lord brings him to mind. Please pray for our family.

Thank you very much. 

Paul and Abigail
