Help 2 day old Emerson, he is in NICU fighting

Donation protected
A dear friend of mine, Nick and his wife Natalie have a beautiful two day old that is fighting for every moment of his young life.  I hope you join with me in providing some extra support so that they don't have to worry about work for a short period of time and can instead focus just on being with Emerson!

Emerson's Story:
This little guy was born two days ago and had a ruff start coming into this world.  He was placed on a ventilator and had to be moved from his birth hospital to Children's in order to get the specialized NICU treatment he needs to survive.  His mother is still at the birth hospital. 

Since being at Children's Emerson is on 100% O2 on a ventilator, sedated.  The doctors say he has pulmonary hypertension and a problem with a valve in his heart.  They also found a pneumothorax near his mediastinum, but they can't do anything about that until he gets stronger, so they are monitoring closely.  It’s very touch and go right now.  We are all hoping for good news on his upcoming tests, come on baby Emerson!

Here's a great message from Nick and Natalie, Emerson's parents:  You are strong, you are a fighter we love you and need you! Mommy is doing everything she can to get to get discharged from sky ridge hospital to come there and be with you. Daddy’s going to come be with you today again regardless. This is so hard, we just keep giving it to God over and over. He’s got us. Most of us have children and know how devastating it is when they get sick.

I hope by creating this fund for Emerson his parents Nick and Natalie can stay with their newborn baby and don't have to worry about going to work.  Please join with me in helping to take one more worry off their plate so they can focus on their little baby Emerson.
