Help support the Bowers & baby Aadalynn

My name is Samantha Mayer. I'm starting this fundraiser to help the Bowers family. Candi Bowers (Candi Salem) is a friend to many of us & her young daughter Abbi gave birth to a beautiful little girl named Aadalynn, who unfortunately made her appearance 15 weeks early & has required a lot of intervention & supportive care. They were at a local hospital but have since had to move to Akron due to some complications that have arisen & potential surgeries that our local hospital didn't have a surgeon capable of doing. So now they are at Akron Children's main campus & have been waiting for an open room at the Ronald McDonald House.

In the meantime, Wess is home with the other kids & Candi & Abbi have been driving back & forth or sleeping in their vehicle for days on end in order to remain in Akron with the baby so Abbi can provide daily skin-to-skin kangaroo care to help the baby heal & develop the bond every newborn needs to thrive. They are in this for the long haul & micro preemies are usually kept until they reach their due date or even longer if complications arise.

I'm reaching out to our friends & community to help one of our own. These funds will go to help support their stay, help provide temporary housing, food, gas & other expenses they will definitely be faced with during these trying times. No amount is too small, every dollar helps! Thank you in advance.
