Our beloved friend Natasha Olausen is one of the strongest, most compassionate people you could ever meet. She is an incredible mother and a deeply loyal friend who has always shown up for others in their time of need.

Two weeks ago Natasha welcomed her beautiful baby girl into the world through an emergency C-section at 34 weeks. Her daughter was born premature and has been receiving care in the NICU.

While Natasha was trying to recover from major surgery and the emotional stress of having a newborn in intensive care, a devastating medical emergency suddenly unfolded.

She began experiencing severe complications and was rushed back to the hospital where doctors discovered serious internal bleeding. Natasha underwent two emergency surgeries in an effort to stop the bleeding and save her life.

During the second surgery, Natasha lost over five liters of blood.

Doctors worked hard to keep her safe.

Natasha is currently in the ICU in critical condition, still recovering from this traumatic event while her premature newborn daughter remains in the NICU.

While we are incredibly grateful that she survived, the road ahead will be long.

Natasha will need significant time to heal physically and emotionally after this life-threatening experience. When she is finally able to come home, she will require ongoing medical support, assistance with daily tasks, and childcare for her children while she continues her recovery.

We are raising funds to help support Natasha and her family with:

• In-home medical care and recovery support

• Childcare for her children during recovery

• Household support and daily living assistance

• Medical expenses and transportation to appointments

• Basic living costs while she focuses on healing

Natasha has already fought through something unimaginable. Now she needs the support of the community around her so that she can focus on recovering and being there for her children.

If you are able to donate, no amount is too small and every contribution will make a meaningful difference.

If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser and keeping Natasha and her children in your prayers means the world.

Thank you for helping us surround Natasha with the support, care, and love she deserves during this incredibly difficult time.
