Help me give my baby girl her best chance at life!

Donation protected

Hi, my name is Angelica Brooke Presnell and I have a big favor to ask.  I am not going to beat around the bush with this, I need financial help right now.  I am 17 weeks pregnant with my 3rd little girl which we just recently found out has a Myelomeningocele (MMC) on her L3 and L4, one of the most severe forms of Spina Bifida.  The High Risk Dr. I seen referred me for a 2 day process appointment at the Fetal Care Center at the Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center in Ohio for possible Fetal Surgery. Having this surgery will reduce the need for shunt placement once she is born, it will also correct her hindbrain herniation and give her a better outcome once I am far enough along to deliver. Once I have the surgery I will be on bed rest at the Medical Center in Ohio for the remainder of my pregnancy, which will be around 3 months.  Due to appointments and such already, I have exhausted all of my leave time at work.  My family is Paycheck to Paycheck so it will be hard to go without my income.  Also, the added travel expense and such for myself and my family will hit us hard.  Anything at all will help!  I want to give our girl the best fighting chance we can, she has 2 sweet sisters and a mom and dad that can’t wait to meet her and the other alternative to the surgery the doctor gave, which was early termination, is too hard to think about right now. We want to do all that is medically possible for her. $1, $2, $5, $10, $20 or more, anything will help.  I know with everyone’s love and support we can get through this.  If you can’t donate please pray for my sweet girl!

For those of you wondering what Fetal Surgery is I have added a link you can check out.
