Help Hawk landed early!

Hi my name is Drew, my wife Ela went into early labor (29 weeks) and had to have an emergency C section to save both her and my sons life on 1/11/2022. Thankfully both are still with us and doing good. My son Hawk will have a long road ahead. Hawk currently is at the NICU at St. Francis Hospital in Colorado Springs and we are great fully at the Ronald McDonald house that’s close by.

The early labor was greatly due to the sudden passing of my wife’s brother just last month who we laid to rest on December 31, 2021, her sister we buried in 2019, along with 2 nephews from one of my sisters in 2021, one of whom was a veteran. To say the least the past 2 years has been huge a struggle on all levels.

Recently my mother in law (who just paid thousands to bury her son weeks ago) came running at drop of a hat to Colorado to support us by watching over our horses that we use for equine therapy for veterans and my step daughter Alyssa, getting her to school and appts.

Our home is off grid has yet to have a well for water dug due to finances. The sudden losses this last year has left our family struggling, like many others are as well. Having running water by the time my son is released in March or April would be a blessing.

The months ahead will be costly to say the least and any help is asked.

please help us give our son Hawk the best chance!
