Caring for Carson Gee

On Thursday (6/30), Katie Gee’s baby, Carson, had a minor procedure to have a g-tube placed. This is almost always a very safe procedure however, unfortunately he was one of the 2% that has had complications. On Friday (7/1) after being discharged, his fever spiked to 103.6 and he was rushed back to CHOSA and eventually he was rushed back for emergency abdominal surgery. He is very, very sick with a continued fever even after medication, increased HR, and lots of pain. There are still so many questions and he’s going to be in the hospital for at least another week.

On top of all of this, Katie’s husband, Pat typically works out of state and I’m unsure how long he’ll be able to stay while Carson is going through this. They also have a 4-year-old, Ava, that is staying with family but obviously the family is torn apart while baby Carson is fighting in the hospital. Katie will have to go back to work within the next few days and, unfortunately, Carson doesn’t seem to be getting better at this time (7/4) even though the staff is doing everything they can to find answers and treat appropriately.

If you are able to help out in this time of need I know this family will greatly appreciate any help you can offer. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts and please keep Baby Carson in your prayers ❤️
