Carissa West is one of the most dedicated and compassionate nurses I’ve ever had the privilege to work with. Her strength and resilience inspire me every single day.

Right now, Carissa is facing one of the toughest challenges a parent can endure. Her beautiful baby girl, Miss Avery, was born prematurely and is bravely fighting through serious health complications, including the need for heart surgery. Despite everything, Carissa continues to show up with grace, courage, and an unwavering commitment to her patients and team.

I want to rally around Carissa and her family during this incredibly difficult time. Let’s come together to show her how much she’s loved and supported. Every contribution makes a difference. Let’s lift them up with hope, love, and generosity.

Thank you for helping us support a true hero and her little fighter.
