Baby Elijah!
Donation protected
On December 18th, our first grandson, baby Elijah (6 months old), fell off his parent's bed and was helivacced to a critical care hospital where he underwent a 4-hour surgery to remove the blood clotting in his brain. For the next week, we prayed as he suffered through seizures, MRIs, CT scans, EEGs, fever, intense stomach pain, and the unknown suffering he couldn't voice. The most difficult part of it all, especially for mommy and baby, was the lack of emotional response, the unrecognition and reaction to the people who loved him most. We wept over the extent of the injuries and what this might mean going forward. The future is still unknown, but last night Jesus "woke" him up and baby Elijah is playing and laughing with his mommy and daddy today!!! Praise God! We are rejoicing!!!
The GoFundMe is to provide financial support for this precious family as they wade through missed work, medical bills, and the trauma of their baby's injuries. We are grateful for every gift to help them through!
