Our daughter, Emory Elise Jean, was born earlier than expected and is currently in the NICU. While she is doing well so far, her doctors have told us she will need to stay in the hospital for a while until she is strong enough to do things on her own. This has been an emotional and challenging time for our family, as we want to be by Emory's side every step of the way.

Being here with Emory means we need help with basic necessities like food and a place to stay. The costs add up quickly, and we are worried about how we can continue to support her and ourselves during this critical time. Our focus is on making sure Emory gets the care she needs, but we also need to make sure we can be present for her without worrying about these daily expenses.

We are asking for support from our community so we can remain close to Emory and care for her while she is in the NICU. Any help you can offer will make a difference for our family and help us stay strong for Emory as she grows and heals.
