Hi all,

If you don’t know me, I’m Adam’s little sister Allison and as of March 9, 2023 I’m an Auntie again. Tate Brooks Barichio came into this world fighting and is already keeping Mom and Dad on their toes. Tate was born via C-section and has been having some trouble with breathing since he came out. Mom and Dad decided with the amazing help of the doctor and OB staff at Tillamook Adventist that it was best to get Tate over to OHSU Nicu to help him get some advanced care. Tate was making some good progress with breathing on his own and breastfeeding. However the last two days he has gone a little backwards and is back fighting again. With Mom and Dad being off work and will possibly have to start getting a hotel soon to be able to stay close to Tate and bills continue to come I’m asking if you could help them in this exciting and scary time, they would be forever grateful. Even just a prayer for Tate helps. Adam was born to be a Dad and there was no better feeling then seeing him hold his baby and the look in his eyes was nothing but love. We’re hopeful that Tate just needs a couple more weeks out there and he can come home, but it’s no guarantee at this point. Again thank you all for reading, donating and well wishes.

Love,

Aunt Allison
