<div>Dear family and friends,

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>As most of you know, on August 15, Lindsay and Chris's family welcomed twin girls, Vera and Waverly, into the world—far too early at just 22 weeks gestation, and just 4 weeks after a move across the country. These tiny miracles were born far too soon but came into this world fighting with all the strength their tiny bodies could give.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>With broken hearts, we share that sweet baby Vera passed away at just 8 days old. She was deeply loved, and we carry her in our hearts every single day.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Her twin sister, Waverly, continues to fight for her life in the NICU with unimaginable strength. She faces a long and uncertain road ahead—filled with surgeries, treatments, and constant medical care. <strong>Every hour is a battle, and every small step forward is a hard-won victory, and she has had many.</strong>

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Between gas, tolls, meals away from home, and other related expenses, the costs are quickly adding up and the stress is overwhelming—but <strong>your support can ease some of that burden so they can focus on Waverly's care and the care of the other girls during this ever-changing situation.</strong> This is an ask that lays heavily on their hearts as they find themselves needing help when they are used to giving help.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Any amount you can give will help make a difference, and if you’re unable to donate, sharing this page is another powerful way to help.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Please keep Waverly, her family, and her care team at Winnie Palmer in your prayers.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with Chris, Lindsay, and the girls in their time of unimaginable grief and hope.

</div>
