Support for Madison Peck
Becca and Jason welcomed their beautiful daughter Madison Marie Peck on March 31st at just 37.5 weeks. As many of you may know, she was transported to Christ NICU where they confirmed she was born with a genetic disease, Sagittal Craniosynostosis. Parts of her skull are sutured together when they should not be, which can restrain proper brain growth. Due to this, Madison will require surgery on her skull at only 3 months old. If all goes well she will have the springs removed at 6 months. She will meet with plastic surgeon, neuro surgeon, and ophthalmologist every 6-12 months until she is 18 to monitor pressure on the brain or any changes in eye sight that would indicate significant pressure.
Madison was also born “sunny side up” and because of this her airways in her nose and throat are tiny and her mouth is so small that she is unable to eat on her own. She is currently requiring feeding tubes, and will not be able to come home until she is able to eat without them.
Becca and Jason have already met with so many doctors and specialists and will continue to do so until they are able to bring their sweet baby home.
Madison’s journey will include surgeries, overnight stays at the hospital, extra care at home, consultations, and more scans/testing than any newborn should have to endure. While insurance will cover some of these costs, we wanted to try to help relieve some of the financial burden.
They have not asked for assistance, but please consider helping Madison, Becca, and Jason in any way you can. Thank you and please keep baby Madison in your prayers!
