Our dear friends Artem and Zina Tereshenko recently experienced the unimaginable loss of their precious baby boy.

While on their babymoon, Zina began feeling unwell and felt like she was going into labor at 32 weeks pregnant. After going to the hospital, she started to hemorrhage and losing a lot of blood. After many attempts of finding baby’s heartbeat, they received the devastating news that their baby no longer had a heartbeat. In an instant, their joyful anticipation turned into heartbreaking grief.

After Zina received medicine, she was able to deliver their precious baby boy.

Their precious son, Nikita Tereshenko was born on March 12th weighing 4lbs 2oz.

This tragedy has left their family devastated and facing unexpected challenges while being far from home. During this incredibly painful time, they are also navigating the difficult logistics of bringing their baby home.

The funds raised will help cover the transportation of Nikita from the hospital in California to Federal Way, Washington, where the family will lay him to rest. Donations will also help support funeral and memorial expenses for their precious baby boy.

Our hope is to ease the financial burden so Artem and Zina can focus on grieving, healing, and being together as a family during this unimaginable loss.

We ask for your prayers, love, and support as they walk through this painful journey. Any contribution, no matter the size, will mean so much to their family.

Thank you for surrounding them with love during this time.
