Hello friends, I would like to share our family's story. On September 16, 2025 our lives were turned upside down. My beautiful sister-in-law and my brother will forever remember this date. While the most beautiful joy overwhelmed our hearts with love - it also filled us with fear, anxiety and unimaginable worry. September 16th, sweet little baby Odin Amadeus Greene was born at just 26 weeks gestation. All the wonders of the unknown flooded in with a mix of joy, tears and fears. What will happen next? What does the next hour look like? The next 12 hours? The next 24 hours? It has been a rollercoaster of 7 days. Some days have been unbelievably magical, while others have been visceral paralyzing emotion. We have discovered the greatest heart bursting love with loving this "little man". This precious baby has already endured great challenges and is fighting hard to overcome hurdles. The best treatment baby Odin can receive, is to be with both mommy and daddy. We know babies thrive from the voice and touch of mommy and daddy. While we never expected to be where we are today, we are here with a grateful heart to love this beautiful little boy. We are kindly offering friends, family and others who may connect with this story - to consider placing a donation in honor of baby Odin, so mommy and daddy can miss some days of work to be at his side. If you or someone close to you have ever walked an overwhelming journey of welcoming the baby of your dreams in the NICU you can recall all the moments as if they were yesterday. We would like to reach a goal of $5,000 to help cover some living expenses, affording both parents to give of themselves to baby without worry of days at work over the next 8-12 weeks. Thank you for reading our story. If you are unable to give monetarily at this time, your healing thoughts are just as valuable and we appreciate you for caring about baby Odin.
