Support For Baby Leo & Parents
Donazione protetta
On Tuesday, August 2nd at 4:42 p.m. Tasha and Kyle Sizemore welcomed their new baby boy, Leo Matthew, into the world. Soon after, their world was torn a part when it was realized that something was wrong with baby Leo. Leo could not breathe on his own and was emergency flown to Cincinnati Children's hospital. Once there, doctors determine that the issue was a congenital heart defect which would require open-heart surgery. Leo was born with transposition of his great arteries and atrial septal defect.
While we all are placing faith in prayer and these cardiac surgeons' hands, we are also increasingly worried about Tasha and Kyle. They are staying in Cincinnati and coping with not being able to hold and care for Leo as they had always planned. They are in the hospital 24/7 awaiting the heart surgery to be scheduled once Leo's lungs are a bit stronger.
After the surgery, they are looking at a couple weeks to a month longer of hospital stay. They are trying to stay strong for Leo. Tasha spent no more than 12 hours in the hospital after giving birth to try and be with Leo. Kyle is missing work he did not plan to miss. Kyle had back surgery in December and Tasha is experiencing lots of medical trauma from labor. They need as many prayers and good thoughts as possible. They are extremely appreciative of everyone asking about them and checking on them. They know that God has important plans for baby Leo.
While Leo's surgery and recovery are ultimately in God's hands, we can come together as family, friends, coworkers, and community to help support this family in their time of need. As anyone who has ever dealt with a medical emergency understands, even with good jobs, financial burdens are going to build up. This gofundme account was created with the intention to help Kyle and Tasha financially so they can solely focus on sweet baby Leo. Any funds raised will help with expensive medical co-pays, food, transportation, lodging, medical needs and extra time off work as needed to care for Leo. Tasha intended to use her accumulated sick days as a maternity leave, but those will run out fast, especially since she and Kyle will both need more time off than ever anticipated.
This gofundme account is linked directly to Tasha and Kyle for withdrawal. Any amount helps. Even if you can't contribute, sharing this account might help reach people who can.
Natasha Sizemore is an English teacher at North Laurel High School in London, KY. Kyle Sizemore works for the DEA in London, KY and also helps coach the North Laurel Middle School Football team.
Kyle and Tasha are active members of The Creek church in London, KY.
They both hate to accept help, but understand that people love them and Leo and want to help them. Let's help relieve some of their stress!
