Hello everyone.

As you all know Madison and Tristan’s home base is Kelowna BC. Because of Madison heart condition this was considered high risk pregnancy and she has had to travel back and forth to Vancouver to be monitored by specialists.

On April 21st Madison went in for a basic routine ultrasound and they discovered an issue with Madisons cervix and Madison and Tristan were air lifted that night to Vancouver where she has been ever since. On Sunday May 7th Madison was having slight contractions and over the course of a few days she started to dilate. On May 10th she was rushed in for an emergency c-section and baby Hazel was born at 12:29pm weighing 2.5lbs at only 27 weeks gestation.

As you can imagine this was a very scary, stressful but exciting time that happened so quickly and so unexpectedly.

Hazel was transferred from St Paul’s hospital by ambulance with her dad Tristan by her side. Maddy remained at St Paul’s until she was released a few days later to join them.

Considering the risks for both Madison and Hazel they are both doing very well and we are all so thankful for that. Being born 3 month premature baby Hazel will remain in hospital for quite some time.

Their main focus is Hazel and they are doing an amazing job at handling every obstacle in their way despite being in another city so far from home and unable to work as they care for baby Hazel. I know that the stress and worry of finances is constantly on their mind and I would like to relieve some of that worry for them so they can just concentrate on healing and bringing Hazel back home.

So please, friends and family from all over, if you feel so inclined please consider donating to the many unforeseen expenses that will inevitably come up as they journey through bringing baby Hazel home for good. If you are not able to give at this time that is completely understandable but I will ask you to send some prayers if you believe or just some good thoughts to baby Hazel, Tristan and Maddy❤️

Thank you all from Tristan, Madison, Hazel & Family❤️
