Carter’s Strength: Help Us with His NICU Medical Costs
Donation protected
Our lives changed unexpectedly when our son was born 9 weeks early on November 27th 2024, weighing just under 4 pounds. His arrival brought both joy and deep concern, as he faces weeks, if not months, in the NICU. Every day, we watch him fight with incredible strength, but the road ahead is long and uncertain.
While the doctors and nurses are doing everything to give him the best care, the reality of medical bills is becoming overwhelming. Even with insurance, the cost of his extended NICU stay is going to be astronomical. Between daily hospital visits, medical expenses, and the unexpected challenges of caring for a premature baby, we are finding ourselves in a financial situation we never imagined.
We’ve always been self-reliant, and asking for help isn’t easy. But right now, we need to focus on being present for our son without the constant worry of how we’ll manage these expenses. That’s why we’re reaching out to our friends, family, and anyone moved by our story. Any contribution—no matter the size—will help lighten our load and allow us to focus on what matters most: our son’s health and recovery.
Your support means more than words can express. Whether it’s a donation, sharing our story, or sending prayers, every bit helps.
ALL DONATIONS WILL PAY FOR MEDICAL EXPENSES.
Thank you for your kindness and generosity. God bless.
