Hi! I’m Harry Bales, and just 4 hours ago (writing on the 8th of September), my wife Alyssa and I only had one kid. Unfortunately, thanks to her high blood pressure that just wouldn’t seem to come down, she ended up having to have an emergency c-section today a bit earlier than planned.

While our new daughter Lilly is okay, I am now in the impossible position of having to care for our older daughter Ellie, take care of Alyssa and Lilly, and work to make up the bills and debts I’ve had to incur while being our family’s sole breadwinner and primary caregiver thanks to Alyssa’s health issues during this pregnancy.

I just need to be able to get through this month while avoiding losing power, water, insurance, or wi-fi—which I use for work—or losing control of any of the debt I’ve had to incur. Once Alyssa has recovered, we should be fine, but until then, I could really use the help. Thank you so so very much if you are kind enough to donate, and I will do my absolute best to pay it forward and one day pay you back.
