Update:
Julie, Ian, Sammy and Lucy need our love and support! Sammy recently had heart surgery and came through well. After going home and beginning recovery, they have hit a major set back having to take Sammy back to the hospital in Phoenix with fluid on his lungs and the looming reality of another heart surgery to come in the next weeks, months or year.
This development not only weighs on their hearts, but also is another big hit with medical expenses and all of the things that come along with another long stay in the hospital in Phoenix away from home.
Please consider contributing to their family with your financial support and offering your prayers for comfort, miraculous healing and sustained strength for all of them.
Julie and Ian have the gift of remaining hopeful and positive, but this unexpected acute need for more care is hard. Thank you for considering and passing this along.
You can read the backstory here:
On September 19th, 2022, Julie and Ian discovered they were pregnant with their second child. What started with excitement soon turned to trepidation when they learned their child had cystic hygroma. This led to a series of meetings with fetal medicine specialists. The doctors diagnosed the baby with Trisomy-21 (Down's Syndrome) and an AV Canal, meaning there is a hole in the middle of the baby's heart that will eventually need to be repaired. They are expecting that the baby will be delivered early, will spend at least two weeks in the NICU, and need heart surgery four to six months after birth. Between the medical expenses and the need for Julie to be out of work to care for the baby, they are expecting a major financial hit. You can read the whole story and get regular updates here:
