Colostomy Care for Charlie

We are reaching out to you today with heavy hearts, seeking your compassion with a humble request for assistance. Our precious daughter Charlie was born with a rare and complex congenital condition called Anorectal Malformation (ARM), that has resulted in needing a colostomy bag at the young earth age of 2 months. She is now nearing 5 months old, and growing into a cute, silly, loveable little girl. However, this condition requires a series of intricate surgeries and ongoing medical interventions throughout her life.

Charlie requires specialized colostomy care products which need to be frequently replaced to maintain hygiene and prevent infection. Additionally, there are regular medical consultations, check-ups, and 2 subsequent surgeries requiring hospital admissions which further contribute the escalating costs. The significant financial load associated with her care needs is beyond what our insurance will provide and what we are able to afford alone.

This is where we humbly turn to you, our incredible support network, for a helping hand to relieve the financial burden of overwhelming medical expenses.

We have created this GoFundMe campaign to raise the necessary funds to cover Charlie's hospital and surgeon bills, medical expenses, and provide her with the comprehensive care she needs in her first year of life. Your generous contributions will enable us to access the best medical specialists, treatments, surgeries, and resources required to support her recovery and development. Every donation, no matter the size, will make a profound difference in Charlie's life. If you are unable to contribute financially, we kindly request that you share Charlie's story.

With so much love and so much gratitude,

Hayley, Chaz, & Charlie
