Rally for Claire (Evans) Lanthier
Zack and Claire Lanthier were married in July 2017 and a year later, were very excited to welcome their first child into the world. The pregnancy was going well until complications started to emerge. Then the beginnings of a heart-breaking nightmare began to unfold.
Little Aaron was born prematurely on Wednesday, August 1st and was delivered by emergency C-section. His health took a sharp downturn when he suddenly stopped breathing. Aaron was taken to the ICU where it was discovered he had an infection. Worse, Claire also came down with an infection that required immediate surgery. It was so aggressive, that Claire had four separate surgeries to remove all of it (it had invaded a large amount of tissue including several organs). The doctors worked frantically to eradicate the infection, but sadly, didn't expect her to live. By a miracle, Claire has beat the odds, but she is still in critical condition. As with any medical treatment, the cost (so far) of treating her and her newborn son has been astronomical. Zack has been with his wife the entire time so their income has stopped. The continued treatment and recovery will take months and will certainly be financially devastating.
It is hard to determine how much all the bills will add up to, but Zack and Claire are in urgent need of financial assistance to help them cover all the costs and stay on their feet.
In the meantime, prayers are requested and much appreciated. We hope that in your charity, you are able to help in some way so this beautiful young couple and their newborn son make it through this very trying time.
