Our Baby is Coming July 11th, But We’re Barely Hanging On

My name is Jacob. My wife, Stephanie, is scheduled for a C-section on July 11th. Two weeks from now, I’ll be a father. But right now… I don’t even know if we’ll have a home to bring our baby into.

I’ve been suspended from work—no pay, no updates, just “wait and see.” It’s been almost a month. We’ve used every bit of savings. We’ve sold what we could. We’ve borrowed, we’ve begged, we’ve cut corners. But it’s not enough.

We are behind on rent. Behind on electric, gas, and internet.

And somehow the lights are still on, but I don’t know how long that will last.

Stephanie can barely move. She’s in constant pain, and with the delivery date so close, she needs rest—not stress. And me? I can’t even give her that. I can’t give her answers. I can’t give her certainty.

All I can do is ask for help.

I’m not proud of this. I hate doing it. But I love my wife. I love our unborn child. And I need to do something. If you can donate anything—even just a few dollars—it goes straight to keeping our lights on, paying rent, and getting baby supplies ready.

If you can’t donate, please share this. Every share is hope.

Thank you for reading. From the bottom of my heart—thank you for giving us a fighting chance.
