Hi, it’s Jess & Pablo. Recently, we’ve had the pleasure of birthing a newborn baby in our lives, but suddenly lost our boy Butters to aspiration pneumonia. He was immunocompromised, and everything happened so fast. He was only a one-year-old lab with so much life and energy to share with the world. He was supposed to grow up with his baby brother.

With his sudden emergency visit and his previous internal medicine visits, the bills really hit us hard. His insurance capped his respiratory policy earlier this year, so we are left financially stranded. Having our own hospital bills to cover and his own, we are not sure how to get through this rough patch. We are setting aside everything to ask for your help. We need our village more than ever to keep our heads afloat, especially for our newborn Miguel.
