Abby’s best friend recently welcomed her baby into the world, but their journey has been anything but easy. Shortly after birth, her newborn had to undergo heart surgery, and there are more surgeries ahead. While both mom and baby are doing their best, the uncertainty and fear are overwhelming. As a new mother, she’s doing everything she can to stay strong for her child, but the emotional and financial toll is immense.

With her baby in the NICU, she’s unable to return to work, and her maternity leave only covers so much. The bills are piling up—rent, electric, water, food, and the diabetes supplies she needs to stay healthy herself. The mounting medical expenses from her baby’s surgeries have made it nearly impossible to keep up. She’s terrified of losing her home while trying to care for her newborn in the hospital.

Any support would help a new mother with her baby and all of his surgeries. It is VERY important she does not lose her house while facing debt from the surgeries. It’s tough being a new mother, but a new mother while your baby is fighting in the NICU is the most strongest woman there is. Your kindness and generosity can help her focus on her baby’s recovery and give them both hope for a brighter future.
