Support baby Nicky and the Peters family

My name is Ronnie Lerminiaux, I am creating this GoFundMe page for my friend/co-worker

Isaac Peters, his wife Susy, sons Benny, Henry and Baby Nicky.

On October 19, 2024, Baby Nicky was born with a rare genetic disorder Prader-Willi Syndrome.

Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder condition that affects your child’s metabolism and causes changes to the baby’s behavior. They have severe low muscle tone and poor feeding during early infancy. Followed by a tremendous appetite that develops between the ages of 2 & 6 years, that can lead to severe obesity.

PWS typically causes a delay in childhood milestones and puberty. Although rare, life-threatening complications can occur which include respiratory illnesses, obesity related cardiovascular problems, sleep apnea and diabetes.

Since birth Baby Nicky has been in the NICU at the Regina General Hospital. He is currently hooked up to a CPAP machine as he is having trouble breathing outwards.

Oxygen has been set up at home for when Baby Nicky is released.

It has been a challenging few weeks for Isaac and Susy. As they navigate this challenging time with Baby Nicky, I am reaching out for support for them. Your donations, no matter the size, will make a profound difference in covering expenses on the long road ahead for this family.

Thank you for your generosity and compassion.
