Funeral Expenses For Elijah Valdez

Donation protected
Juanito and Aubrie"s story started out as an unexpected pregnancy....young and in love, then their hearts fill with joy and acceptance!

Juanito 'Mans Up' and does what any responsible 'Father to Be' would do...he gets an apartment for them, a second job to pay all the bills, so Aubrie and the baby are taken care of. The pregnancy was going well and being monitored carefully by Aubrie's team of Dr's...then on May 25th 2018  Aubrie's water broke, and they went in to Spectrum Health Hospital, in Grand Rapids Michigan. Aubrie remained in the hospital on bed rest,  due to being high-risk and not at full-term ( baby was due July 30th 2018). Aubrie was given steroids to help baby's lungs develop better.  The plan was to get baby to 33 weeks gestation period and then induce labor. 

On May 30th 2018, after being in the hospital 5 days... Aubrie woke up with terrible pain in her abdominal area around 7am, they quickly alerted the hospital staff that something didn't feel right... nurses came in and began checking for signs of labor and a heart rate, using a few different machines and eventually performing a ultrasound. Aubrie and Juanito were given the devastating news, NO parent EVER wants to hear...I am sorry, but your baby no longer has a pulse. The family gathered together in the hospital, all grieving and confused...waiting for 15 LONG hours!
