Krause Twins Medical Expenses

My name is Margaret Dize. I am Whitney Williams Krause's mother and the grandmother of Khloe and Gracie Krause. Whitney would never be the one to ask for help but in these circumstances, I know that they are financially in need.

Whitney was diagnosed with mono-mono twins which means she has identical twins that shared the same sac and placenta. It is extremely rare and happens in less than 0.1 of pregnancies, making it an extremely high-risk pregnancy. Due to those circumstances, she was hospitalized at John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Md. for two months. The babies were just born at 33 weeks and two days. Since they arrived before their due date, the babies have to stay in the NICU for two more months. These two months are in addition to the two months stay Whitney had to endure.

As you can imagine hospital and medical bills add up quickly as do other expenses. Kody (husband) and Whitney will need to stay in a hotel near John Hopkins Hospital since it is so far from where they live (2.5-3 hours away), along with the lodging expenses, gas prices, tolls, and parking make it difficult financially. Due to Whitney's long hospitalization, she has not been able to work and will take some time to recover before she can return to work.

I want to be able to help them by taking off some of this financial burden in some way. I know even the littlest amount can go a long way. A lot of people have reached out asking what they can do and offering to help, so I thought this would be a great way to help them out.

Also, I know that Whitney and Kody appreciate all the love, support, and prayers everyone has been sending & even if someone is not able to help financially I know they would still continue to appreciate all the prayers they can get! God has been with them on this journey! So if you are willing to help with their need please know that it is much appreciated by Whitney & Kody and their new twins.
