Hi, my name is Jayden. I’m a stay-at-home mom of 4 beautiful kids, and we just welcomed our newest little boy into the world.

Due to complications during pregnancy, he had to be delivered early and has been in the NICU for the past week. We just found out he’ll likely need to stay for another month. I also had medical complications before his delivery, so I’ve been hospitalized too.

My husband works 12-hour shifts, 5 days a week to support us, but he’s had to stay at the hospital with me and the baby. With me unable to work and him missing hours, we’re falling behind fast — and with the way the economy is right now, it’s been really hard to keep up.

We never thought we’d be the family asking for help, but we’ve realized we can’t do this alone. Even $2 would mean the world to us right now. It would go toward gas, meals at the hospital, and bills at home while we focus on getting our little man strong enough to come home.

If you took the time to read this, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. If you’re able to share or help, please know our whole family appreciates you more than words can say.
