Join Us in Supporting the Boorman Family

Donation protected
Hello. I am Jennifer Sundby, a colleague/friend of Katie and Patrick Boorman. and their son Calvin. They found out in September that they would be welcoming another little one to their family. At a routine ultrasound at 21 weeks, they learned they would be welcoming a brother and unfortunately they found out a whole lot more. After more testing, it was confirmed that Baby Boorman has spina bifida. They were referred to Midwest Fetal Care Center in Minneapolis. They traveled down for more testing and learned baby has an open spinal cord but still maintains full mobility at this time. With the spinal cord open, amniotic fluid is causing swelling in the brain. This can cause more damage through out the pregnancy if there is no intervention. Due to no other health concerns, Katie and baby were great candidates for a fetoscopic surgery. Surgery was conducted this morning/afternoon, December 10th. The head surgeon said all the repairs on the baby went flawlessly. The doctor was very pleased with how everything went and this is a great step in the right direction for the baby. Katie will need to stay in Minneapolis with family while leaving behind her husband and son as well as her job until baby is born in February/March. This will create a huge financial burden as well as stress on their young family. Please support me in helping to relieve some of the financial burden they will endure. No donation too small and no prayer too small!
