Stillborn Carter's Medical Expenses

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Linda and I'm trying raise funds to help with medical costs for the pregnancy and delivery of Carter James Tepatti on March 18, 2023. He was stillborn. On March 15th they found out that he unexpectedly passed two weeks before the scheduled induction. During the pregnancy Carter was diagnosed with a Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) and a Congenital Heart Defect (CHD). After many ultrasounds, fetal echocardiograms, an MRI, birth, and more testing the medical bills have piled up. Their insurance will not cover much of it. His parents, Sandra and Tyler are hard working, compassionate people who love children. They love children so much they operate an in home licensed daycare business caring for other peoples children. Unfortunately, as business owners, they have to pay for their own medical insurance. They were sold an inadequate medical insurance policy that barely covers childbirth and related expenses.... only about 10%. The balance of all the bills falls on them to pay to the doctors and hospital. Im asking 20k even though the actual amount they owe is closer to 30,000. The birth itself came to around 17k. This has been the most difficult thing ever for them. This was their first child. Tyler and Sandra are left with a broken heart, empty arms and a stack of medical bills. Please help. Thank you.
