Lindsay and Chad welcomed their daughter Violette into the world under the most difficult circumstances. Shortly after birth, Violette was admitted to the NICU due to oxygen deprivation, and she is now undergoing therapeutic hypothermia—a critical treatment to protect her brain from further injury. For 72 hours, Violette’s body is being cooled while doctors closely monitor her neurological signs, vital organs, and bloodwork, hoping for signs of stabilization and improvement. The days ahead are filled with uncertainty as her care team watches for seizures, tracks her brain activity, and prepares for important imaging to assess the extent of her injury.

Lindsay is by Violette’s side, but she hasn’t been able to hold her baby yet due to the emergency interventions. She is also recovering from a difficult C-section, supported by Chad, who has put his work on hold to be present for his family. Both parents are exhausted, overwhelmed, and devastated as they face each day in the NICU, longing for the moment they can finally hold and comfort their daughter. The emotional and financial toll is immense, with mounting medical bills and the loss of income adding to their stress.

Your support will help Lindsay and Chad focus on Violette’s fight for recovery without the added burden of everyday expenses like meals, utilities, and other essentials. Any contribution will make a meaningful difference as they navigate this frightening and uncertain time. Thank you for standing with this family and giving them hope when they need it most.
