Help Ally Beckum’s Baby Atlas Overcome TEF EA Challenges

I am setting this up for this beautiful family!

Any amount you can share is greatly appreciated. And please share this GoFundMe!! Atlas’ mother’s words are better than anything I could possibly write:

Ben and I welcomed our sweet baby boy one week ago today, Sunday, March 2nd, 2025, at 31 weeks and six days via emergency C-section due to placental abruption. He was 4 pounds and 11.5 ounces and 18.9 inches long. His name is Atlas. He was diagnosed with TEF/EA (Type C), which we learned about just five days before he was born. TEF/EA, or Tracheoesophageal Fistula and Esophageal Atresia, is a birth defect in which the esophagus does not fully form, resulting in a blockage or lack of connection between the upper and lower parts of the esophagus, and there is an abnormal connection between the esophagus and the trachea, allowing fluids and food to enter the airways instead of the stomach. He underwent a 9 1/2 hour surgery at just two days old to close the fistula in his trachea and reattach his esophagus. We will find out tomorrow how that is healing, or if there are any leaks in his esophagus. He is the strongest little soul I have ever had the pleasure to meet, and it is the greatest honor of my life to have been chosen to be his mom. Ben and I are still wrapping our minds around being NICU parents. It's a rollercoaster. Everyone here has been so kind, and he's stealing the hearts of his team. We haven't been able to hold him yet, but are optimistic that will happen this week. He is everything we've ever wanted, and we're so grateful. He's got a hard fight ahead of him, and I won't lie, this is gut-wrenching. Please keep Atlas in your thoughts, prayers, vibes, etc. I can't wait for the day I get to say, 'We're bringing Atlas home.'
