Hi, my name is Brittany and this is pretty girl Harlei. She was born premature at 25w4d, weighing only 1lb 12.4oz. She’s currently in the NICU where she will have to stay until she grows big enough to breathe on her own. Along with a few other minor issues needing therapy to fix.

Baby Harlowe has been faced with many obstacles since she’s been alive. She is on a cpap machine to help her lungs, she had an open heart valve that doctors closed with two procedures, and a spot on her brain that is bleeding but making progress. On 04.04.25 and 06.04.2025 babygirl had to have surgery to remove part of her intestines due to a hole and go back in to reconnect the intestines while removing part of her colon.

I’m currently on NON FMLA with my employer and having to drive an hour or more to see her, and the cost of her stay has gotten up to $69,000. I was skeptical about making this GoFundMe because my pride is huge, but I want to give her a fair chance at life, so I had to think of her first. If anyone could donate $1 to baby Harlowe’s medical care, it would be greatly appreciated by us both.

- Sincerely, a NICU mom.
