Help Baby Wyatt's Life-Saving Surgery

Our world was turned upside down on March 31st when we found out at 25 weeks pregnant that our baby boy Wyatt will be needing life-saving surgery when he is born. A fetal MRI showed a teratoma pressing on his esophagus, which will cause issues with breathing and feeding at birth. These types of masses have the potential to grow very large and cause other complications for baby and mom. While we are fortunate that this was caught early, there is a lot of unknown.

We will need to be monitored on a weekly basis here at home in Cleveland, Ohio, and will be needing to temporarily relocate to Cincinnati, Ohio, to be near the Children's Hospital (the best in the country) within the next month. This is based on the recommendation of our doctors in Cleveland. After Wyatt's birth and surgery at Cincinnati Children's Hospital, he is expected to remain in the NICU there for weeks to possibly months. The financial burden of relocation, travel, leaves of absences at work, as well as the medical costs for treatments will be overwhelming for us, so any help at all is appreciated. Thank you for the continued prayers and support.
