Hi, my name is Maria. I’m currently 32 weeks pregnant and under hospital care for preterm labor. Because of the risks, I’ll need to remain here for the next 3–4 weeks so both I and my baby can be closely monitored, with the NICU team ready if needed.

This situation has been incredibly difficult for our family. I live about an hour and a half from the hospital, so I can’t be home with our three children. My fiancé has had to step back from work to care for them and keep things together while one is also in school.

With both of us out of work and no access to affordable childcare, we’re facing serious financial strain. We never imagined we would need to ask for help, but right now, any support would mean the world to us.

Your donation will go directly toward keeping our family afloat during this unexpected time—covering food, bills, childcare, and the costs of staying near the hospital. We are deeply grateful for any help, whether it’s a donation or simply sharing our story.

Thank you for supporting our family as we fight to bring our little one safely into the world.
