Bringing Baby Alexander Home

Donation protected
We are starting a go fund me to bring baby Alexander home! Alexanders pregnancy has been rough from the start.  Felicia suffered from ovarian cysts which restricted the room for baby Alexander to grow.  Her water broke February 24th at only 31 weeks of gestation and she was losing amniotic fluid.  Felicia and baby Alexander were flight for lifed to Denver Presbyterian's/St. Lukes.  The doctors were able to stop her labor for as long as possible in order for Alexander to have more time to grow.  However, due to infection, Felicia was induced for delivery March 13th after spending 3 weeks in the ICU.  During deliver, Alexanders heart rate dropped and Felicia was rushed into emergency C-section.  Alexander Antonio Gallagher Dabney was finally welcomed to the world.  However, the baby is still a month and a half premature and will have to spend quite a while in the NICU.  Alexander is currently on a feeding tube, incubator UV treatments, etc.  Currently, Felicia is still hospitalized recovering from her surgery.  Once discharged, Felicia and Marcus will need to stay nearby.

We would like to help offset the costs of out of pocket insurance expenses as a flight for life, over 3 week stay in the ICU, and near 6 week stay for Alexander in NICU will quickly add up.  There will also be expenses for travel back and forth so that Marcus can continue to work and the family can support them during this trying time.  At some point, baby Alexander will also need some special equipment for preemie babies.  We would like to help lift some of the financial burden off of their shoulders so they can focus on bringing baby Alexander Home Safely.  Anything and Everything helps!  Thank you for your support!
