Baby Maddox Levi’s Funeral Expenses

Donation protected
At 10:34am on February 21 2020 Maddox Levi was born sleeping. 6lbs 3oz 19.5 inches of pure perfection.




Kimberly and Chris arrived at the hospital expecting to start the process of labor. They were ready to bring their brand new baby into the world. Heartbreakingly, upon arrival to labor and delivery they were unable to detect his heart beat. Kimberly and Chris were told their baby would be stillborn.




We are raising money to help cover the unexpected funeral costs for a baby too precious for this world. I hope to ease the financial burden they currently face along with other expenses associated with the loss of a child.










A message from Kimberly

————————————————-




Today we were supposed to be packing up and taking our baby home with us.







For unknown, and unexpected reasons we will be doing so just in our hearts and memories.

As we prepared for delivery, no heartbeat was found.




*I would like to ask everyone to refrain from asking for any more details, information, questioning us as we are all shattered and truly not okay. I wanted to post solely to keep from any more messages NOT because I’m unappreciative of people being concerned for us, but because my heart is completely broken and at this time I cannot keep reading and answering messages.. asking how he is doing, when I will post photos, why he isn’t here yet... I ask that everyone please, please respect our wishes during this time.




We have named our angel baby Maddox Levi. He is so perfect and beautiful. His looks are so, so similar to his Whitley’s who loves him just as much as we do. I have included a photo of her as a newborn.. to show similarities & the beauty in her. I will forever be able to see a glimpse of my angel baby through my sweet baby girl. ♥️




I was lucky to have a very, very fast labor & I will cherish the great amount of time that we were able to spend with our baby afterwards, ensuring he was shown nothing but true love. I do want to thank my support system.. all my family, Chris family.. my friends who dropped what they were doing to comfort me best they could.. Christopher and Whitley especially, for being here for me during this time as I’m not sure if I will ever truly heal from this. I will never understand why this has happened.




I also want to thank Ann Fredricks for her time, standing by my side and providing us with beautiful, memorable photos. I was lucky to have a bereavement doula stop by and talk to me as well. The nurses and doctors at O’Bleness were phenomenal and I couldn’t have asked for more support from them, either.
