Nothing could ever prepare you for the death of a child. Ezekiel's life has been far from easy. 6 weeks in the NICU, a surgery to install a feeding tube because he's unable to eat on his own, 70% brain matter loss, a rare genetic condition, never being able to grow up. Every day he fought to be with us, long enough that he made it to his first birthday which none of the doctors thought he was capable of. Now what little is left of his brain is deteriorating and his little body just can't handle it anymore. Unfortunately, we only have a few weeks left with him.

Many family and friends have reached out asking how they can help so we decided to set up this fundraiser for people to contribute to. This money will help us cover:
  • A $5200 medical bill
  • $800 in funeral expenses: his funeral home covers a vast majority of the costs thankfully but there are still some things we have to cover directly
  • Funds to cover bills so we can get more time off work
  • Ordering food/preprepared meals


Thank you in advance for all your love and support.
