Loss and Cremation for Baby Carson

Donation protected

My sister Felicia and her boyfriend Cord recently found out at their 20 week ultrasound that their baby boy didn’t develop. They have had to miss work unexpectedly and will need to travel to Chicago to deliver him sleeping. Due to how far along she is,  staying in the state of Iowa is not an option any longer. She will miss work to recover physically and emotionally. Her Facebook post is below. Any donation, small or large, is greatly appreciated. I know that grief is nothing that money can fix, but I hope to lessen her burden financially so she can focus on her family at this devastating time  

“Last Thursday we got to see our sweet perfect baby boy, with a strong heart beat and sucking away at this thumb. He developed his arms, legs, brain, and spine. But he also developed a very rare lethal diagnosis called Potters Syndrome or bilateral renal agenesis, meaning neither one of his kidneys even began to develop and there is absolutely no amniotic fluid around him. This week we have to take a trip to Chicago to be induced and deliver him stillborn. We are heartbroken, confused, and overwhelmed. It’s so extremely unfair. We didn’t deserve this and neither does our son. Everyone just please pray for our healing through this process. ”

Thank you for any help, and please keep her and her family in your thoughts during this difficult time.
