Help Support Baby Robin's at Home Care
I'm a proud grandmother!
On September 23, 2025, our family welcomed a beautiful new life into the world: baby Robin! Within minutes of his birth, he stopped breathing and was swiftly put on a ventilator. Extensive testing and treatments in the NICUl revealed an extremely rare genetic mutation affecting the body's ability to breathe automatically, especially during sleep, called Congenital Central Hypoventilation Syndrome (CCHS). There is no cure for CCHS, but it is manageable with proper care for a near-normal life expectancy.

Robin had surgery to place a tracheostomy, connected to a ventilator for long-term breathing treatment, and a gastrostomy tube placed for nutrition and medication administration. He will require close supervision and monitoring around the clock. While we are excited about finally bringing our beloved baby home, we realize the challenges and high out-of-pocket costs in establishing a professional medical team along with his supplies, specialized medical equipment, and ongoing therapies ahead.

We are extremely grateful for all the love, support, and prayers that have been given on Robin's behalf. We are asking for donations of any amount, no matter how small, to add ease to the family and allow us to focus on what matters: loving and caring for our sweet child. If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser with others. Although we are still learning, feel free to ask questions in honor of Robin's support.

We appreciate your kindness, help, and generosity. We know Robin will continue to thrive and make a positive difference in the world. Who knows, he could grow up to be the first astronaut with CCHS!
May we all continue to grow in wellness and happiness together!
