Nichole, Wil and Baby Wyatt
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Renee’ Dean and I am fundraising for our daughter and her husband (Nichole and Wil) and their unborn baby boy, Wyatt.
Wyatt is Nichole and Wil’s rainbow baby and as many of you know, Nichole has been considered a high risk pregnancy from the beginning due to a few issues. One of the biggest is a fibroid tumor that is attached to the outside of her uterus that has grown and grown right along with Baby Wyatt and is taking up much of the space where he would normally grow. The fibroid measured 17cm at is largest (about the size of a melon). This darn fibroid (which has become to be known as Bob) has caused many issues from bleeding to pain to causing Wyatt to be termed as ‘Growth Restricted’.
So, long story short, on Thursday, July 6, Nichole was again taken to the hospital with some continued bleeding and the feeling of contractions. It was determined that she is in fact in pre-term labor, is leaking amniotic fluid and has dilated to 1 1/2 cm. The goal at this point is to keep the contractions at bay, keep her on antibiotic to prevent infection, give her steroids to help Wyatt strengthen his lungs more and hopefully keep him in place a couple of weeks longer. At this point she has been transferred from Murrieta to Sharp Mary Birch Hospital for Women & Newborns down in San Diego for more specialized care and where Wyatt will have a much higher level of care at adjacent Rady Children’s Hospital NICU when he is born.
We are raising funds to help with the additional cost of having to be at a hospital an hour away from home (gas, food, etc) and to help cover costs that they will incur in regards to co-pays and out of pocket expenses associated with a lengthy hospital and NICU stay.
Any amount is appreciated and will help tremendously in relieving some of the stress that Nichole and Wil are experiencing in trying to figure out how to cover everything.
We are trusting that the Lord has both Nichole and Baby Wyatt in his loving hands and is protecting both of them. Please join us in continued prayers.
