<div>Dear friends, family, and kind-hearted strangers,



</div>



<div>I’m reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your support during a truly difficult time for my brother Miguel and his family. Their beautiful baby, Lukas, was born prematurely at just 29 weeks due to placental insufficiency, weighing only 2.1 pounds. This condition caused Lukas to arrive much earlier than expected, and the road ahead is uncertain and full of challenges.



</div>



<div>As you can imagine, this has been an incredibly stressful and emotional time for my brother, Jasmine, and their family. Lukas is currently receiving intensive care in the NICU, fighting every day to grow stronger. He will be there for a minimum of 9-12 weeks. The medical team is doing everything they can, but the costs of staying in Winnipeg to be close to Lukas, commuting and missing work are adding up quickly.



</div>



<div>This is where you come in. I am asking for your help to ease the financial burden on my brother and his family during this incredibly trying time. Every donation, no matter how big or small, will go directly to covering these and support for my brother and Jasmine as they navigate this journey.



</div>



<div>Lukas is already showing signs of strength and resilience, but he will still have a long way to go. Your support will help give him the best possible chance to grow healthy and thrive.



</div>



<div>Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your kindness, generosity, and support.



</div>



<div>Please keep Lukas, my brother, and their entire family in your thoughts and prayers during this challenging time.



</div>



<div>With gratitude,



</div>



<div>Kelly K.
