Baby Beau Rylee- NICU Warrior

Donation protected
It is no secret that Haylee and Kory Kaiser have wanted to be parents for many years. They've spent tens of thousands of dollars on failed procedures in the hopes of starting a family of their own. They've experienced losses that many of us will never truly understand but have never lost their hope. The medications, surgeries, negatives, positives, excitement, and tears have all been a part of their journey.

When Haylee and Kory found out that they were FINALLY and SHOCKINGLY pregnant this past spring, they cautiously celebrated and began to pray. This baby was the rainbow they'd been waiting for and so desperately wanted. As some of you may or may not know, Haylee received some scary news that no pregnant momma wants to hear right around the end of the first trimester. Her cervix was far too short and she was put on modified bed rest in early June in hopes that the baby would stay put as long as possible. She's had weekly appointments with a specialist, needed emergency surgery in early July to place stitches in her cervix to again prolong the pregnancy and was ultimately admitted into the hospital on July 30th. It appeared that things had calmed down and that a goal of at least 28 weeks would maybe be possible. 

On August 6th, Haylee knew something was off but the doctors and nurses assured her what she was experiencing was normal. At roughly 6:45pm, it was discovered that she was actually almost fully dilated and baby HAD to come immediately. Shock and panic took over but baby Beau was born via emergency c section and rushed to the NICU where it is anticipated he will be until possibly November, which is when he was due to arrive. 

In an effort to take away some of the stress of this experience, I am asking you to consider helping out Haylee, Kory and Baby Beau. Right now, each day is a milestone, and it is so important they can all be together. Beau is doing well but he has a long road ahead of him. Haylee and Kory are also incredibly strong and are doing their best to be optimistic but they need to be there for each and with their tiny miracle as much as possible. 

If a donation isn't your thing, no worries. Baby Beau needs all the prayers and well wishes sent his way too. We'll do our best to keep you all updated along this journey. Thanks for reading and for all of the well wishes and prayer so far.
