Help for Luka

Donation protected

Hello,
My name is Doriann and I am starting this fundraiser on behalf of my nephew Luka. Luka was born on March 23, 2023, and has spent his first four months, 138 days, in the NICU. We are asking for help to offset the growing hospital expenses and any new expenses that occur as they acclimate to Luka living at home.
When Luka was born, unexpected complications were discovered. This complex journey has led to Luka coming home with a trach, ventilator, and G-tube and an extremely rare genetic condition.
Chris and Destinee are the last people that would ever ask for help, but between transportation to care for Luka, leaves of absence from work, medications, hospital bills, just being away from home, and the increasing cost of living, they could use some help to offset some of these financial burdens.
In addition, Luka is not set up with home nursing care as insurance is still pending. During this unknown length of waiting time, we are looking to fund home healthcare and purchase a generator that ensures Luka’s safety in any power outages.
Luka is a strong, sweet, happy boy with the most beautiful eyelashes and the most animated facial expressions that will always bring a smile to your face.
We are asking for any help and appreciation any token of support we can give this loving family as they venture on this journey with Luka.
Please keep praying for our little guy, he is one strong fighter! #LukaStrong
