Aid Abby as She Cares for Baby Azar

Donation protected



Hello, I am the mother of Abby Johnson. Most of you who know either me or her, know she just recently had little baby Azar. You will also know that Azar has had lots of medical complications since his unexpected delivery on November 25, 2024. Abby is doing well and is trying to stay strong for her son's sake. He is currently residing at the Mott's Children Hospital in Ann Arbor, and as you know, Abby lives in Lansing. Thankfully, she has gotten a room at the Ronald McDonald House right across the street from the hospital so she can stay there while he continues to overcome his medical issues. But the requirement for the stay at the Ronald McDonald House is you need to check in daily to keep your room. So, because of the distance, Abby is not able to come home to stay a night or even go back to work at this moment. Her focus is solely on getting her son strong enough to be released to go home.

With that all happening, she has exhausted all of her available paid leave time at her job and is not eligible to file for short-term disability. This is causing her unneeded stress at a time when she really doesn't need the extra stress. The trips back and forth are using up what little funds she has for appointments or obtaining supplies to take back to the hospital.This has also caused her to fall behind on her mortgage and vehicle loan payments. She is looking at every avenue to find means of financial support right now until little Azar can be released from the hospital. She has struck out at a few places but is still trying. She is working with the social worker at the hospital to maybe assist in getting Azar set up with SSI payments, but that is going to take some time, and time is not what Abby has right now.

Abby doesn't like asking for help, so I am asking for her. If anyone would be willing to just donate a little to at least assist her with some of her financial dilemmas, it would be so greatly appreciated.
