Preemie Xzavier Family Assistance

Our baby Xzavier was born premature (33 weeks) and we've both returned to work until he comes home.

However, my wife is having difficulty remaining at work while the baby is in the hospital: Xzavier is growing, but slower than what he should be at this point, so
she's been asked by the doctor's to spend more time there while wheening the baby from an NG tube to nursing; and has also been told how important skin to skin contact with baby and mom is to encourage growth. 

My wife (Toshia) will be taking an extra week or so off work, whatever's necessary, putting a large dent in our finances on top of time already taken off. Unfortunately, maturnity leave is not paid for.

We have three children at home and I'm also currently housing my mother and three of my siblings so anything you can do to help is very much appreciated. 

The funds donated here will go to helping us pay our rent (1525) for the next month and other bills/groceries.

I lament having to ask for money, but my belief is that as a community, we can help each other out so much more effectively.  I pride myself in being self sufficient so I humbly ask for anything you cna spare. I feel eternally blessed for this opportunity to reach out to so many people and am so thankful to God for anything you are able to help with.

Thank you and God Bless
