Support for Cassie's Medical Journey

Donation protected
Hi everyone, Mak and Cassie are the parents of Luca (3) and Mariana (1) and are expecting twin girls in 8 weeks. Last week Cassie was admitted to the hospital due to her lungs suddenly starting to fill with fluid. Dr's started preparations to deliver the twins early in hopes this would relieve the stress on her body. By the following morning Cassie began having heart failure. She was rushed to UW Madison hospital. Dr's discovered the right side of her heart is more than 2x the size it should be. They were pretty certain delivering the babies early could be fatal to Cassie. The doctor told us they have seen cases like this before but hers is by far the worst case they have seen. Each day the dr's and staff are doing what they need to do to try to make sure Cassie is stable and the babies can reach full term. This is NO small task. Cassie will remain at the UW Madison hospital for the next 12-16 weeks. Mak works in Marshfield and will be traveling throughout the week and weekends to be with her. That hike is 300 miles round trip. Her parents are also traveling back and forth to stay by her side. There are several expenses such as travel funds, food, loss of additional family income, lodging, childcare, medical expenses not covered by insurance and many more that these donations will cover. Thank you so much for helping! Mak will be taking off 7 weeks unpaid time off after the babies are born as Cassie will remain in the hospital. This page will stay up until Cassie comes back home as expenses will continue to grow.
