Please help my sister and her little baby Luca
Donation protected
Hello my name is Samantha,
I have opened a go fund me for my sister Amanda and her beautiful baby boy Luca.
Luca was born at 33 weeks after Amanda had her routine check with her midwife where her blood pressure wasn't stable.
Amanda labored for 15 hours before an emergency cesarean was given as Luca went into distress.
From the day Luca was born on the 9.4.25 Amanda has found everything becoming harder.
Luca is in NICU at nepean hospital where he will be for the coming weeks he's on high flow and is fighting hard.
He's being fed with an ng tube.
Amanda has 5 other children who she's trying to support as well as traveling to Nepean hospital early each morning and returns home in Blackheath well after 10pm. Amanda is catching public transport everyday.
Everything is adding up and is becoming overwhelming.
Luca is being seen by speech, ENT, A heart specialist/ surgeon.
Amanda is finding her mental health has been impacted, Amanda also has a very nasty infection in the cesarean area.
I'm hopeful that opening this go fund me will help Amanda stay in Penrith closer to her baby, and help with the cost of travel and meals.
Amanda's older children are struggling with big emotions.
They are 15, 10, 8, 5 and 3 baby Luca will be 2 weeks old on Wednesday.
If you are able to help in any way please help my sister and Luca every little bit will help.
Thank you so much from my family.
