Support for Erica's Little Girl's Heart Surgery

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Erica. I'm a mom of 5 great children: 3 girls and 2 boys, ages 11, 7, 5, 2, and 1. They are the best thing in my life, and everything I do is for them. No matter what, I just want them all to be happy, healthy, loved, and cared for. They are a blessing and deserve the best.

Anyways, I'm not sure how to really do this, but we have a big event coming up for my 5-year-old daughter. She will need heart surgery, and it's gonna be out of our hometown. We will have to travel about 2 hours away from home. She will hopefully only need a smaller procedure done, but they will have to do some extra tests first. If all is well, we can go for it; if not, then she will need to have open-heart surgery. We don't really know much until we get there. We have to leave on the 22nd, and her set day and time is the 23rd at 6 am.

I'm asking for a little help with some funds. I don't expect much or a lot, just a little to help and to make sure we are okay for the stay and the traveling. My other children will be staying with family members, and after paying all the bills and getting household items, etc., we are on a very tight budget, sadly. My struggle is pretty real right now, and I just want to make sure we are all set and will be okay. Maybe we can do something a little fun for her before her big event and before she has to stay down the rest of her summer.

Again, I don't expect a whole lot; anything can and will help. We also ask for some extra prayers, and we will be extra grateful, and my Winnie Pooh will be extra happy as well. Thank you for your time and any efforts. God bless and thank you!
