Jackson Strong

As most of you know, our nephew, Jackson Anthony was born Thursday September 22 at Texas Children's Hospital. He was admitted to the NICU after birth due to a congenital heart defect. Jackson will have to have at least two surgeries before he is 6 months of age and he may possibly be in the NICU for a few months.

Jackson is a fighter, his parents are incredibly strong and the support he has through friends, family and the amazing Texas Children's NICU team is unimaginable.

As of now the doctors are waiting for Jackson to get stronger and to gain a little weight to be able to perform his first surgery. He is stable, breathing on his own and taking food through a feeding tube. Ashley is pumping like a champ and Jackson is taking her milk, which is wonderful!

This will be a long road for Jackson, Ashly and Zach and besides praying for this sweet baby boy and his parents daily, we want to ask for financial assistance. This was not asked for by his parents, but we are starting this no matter what. Not only will they have to pay for gas daily, but they will have more out of pocket expenses for hospital co-payments, food and hotels. With Jackson's possibility of being in the NICU for months we are hoping Ashley and Zach can get some support from the Ronald McDonald House, but there are so many hidden charges they did not expect. They also did not expect this length of time in the NICU.

Any amount will help this sweet and strong family at this time. Prayers will be forever grateful as well and much needed. God bless everyone and I will keep everyone posted through this site as much as possible. Thank you again, we know Ashley and Zach will truly appreciate this.

Love Always,

Katelyn Chiarello & Allison Wilson
