First off, I absolutely hate doing this. This isn't something I take lightly, but we could use a little help.

Our son was admitted to Children’s ICU on September 26th (this is the second admission this month) and underwent extensive testing. My poor baby had numerous CTs, X-rays, MRIs (I think 3 in total, one with contrast and anesthesia). He had bloodwork done every day, probably had 17 IVs in total, multiple sonograms, two 24-hour EEGs, a fluoroscopy, an EKG, and then a brain surgery where they put a wire into his brain to monitor his ICP pressures (intracranial pressure). We did get discharged on October 8th, but unfortunately with no answers . They have started him on medication, and now we're just waiting to see if it fixes what's going on or if we need to go back for more testing.

But I have missed over two weeks of work and the medical bills are starting to come in. Oliver also has to follow up with neurosurgery, neurology, gastroenterology, ophthalmology, and also general surgery, all of which have copays. And I just feel like I'm drowning at the moment...

We are a bigger family; it's me (Oliver's mom), his dad, and 5 sisters. We work really hard and we have never asked for help like this before, so if you're able to help, it would mean a lot to our family. Even if you could just share, it would mean a lot. Also, if you have any questions about anything, please just ask. Thank you
