In Support of Baby Emersyn
Our family is asking for a little extra love and support for my sweet niece, Emersyn.
Just a couple of nights ago, Emersyn was life-flighted from Gillette, Wyoming, to a children’s hospital in Colorado after becoming very sick with whooping cough and rhinovirus. What her parents initially thought would be another virus they could ride out at home quickly became something much more frightening.
After a bout of severe coughing, Emersyn stopped breathing and was taken to the hospital here in Gillette. After spending a day or two there, she had a couple more frightening episodes where she stopped breathing. Because of this, doctors made the decision to life-flight her to Colorado so she could receive the specialized care she needs.
This is such a scary and trying time for our family, especially with Emersyn being so new to this world. Her parents, Hailey and Dylon, are doing everything they can to be by her side and get their baby girl through this. Hailey is a stay-at-home mom, and Dylon has had to take time away from work to be with them. Right now, they don’t have a definite timeline for when Emersyn will be able to come home.
We’re hoping to help take some of the financial stress off their shoulders while they focus on what matters most: their baby girl getting better.
Donations will help with the unexpected expenses that come with a situation like this—time away from work, food, travel between Wyoming and Colorado, medical bills, and the many other costs that can quickly add up when your baby is hospitalized away from home.
If you’re able to donate, any amount truly means so much. And if donating isn’t possible, please don’t think that means you can’t help. A prayer, a kind message, sharing this fundraiser, or simply keeping Emersyn and her family in your thoughts means more than we can put into words.
This sweet baby has parents who love her more than anything and a big sister who is anxiously waiting for her baby sister to come home. ❤️
So, from the bottom of our hearts, we’re asking our friends, family, and community to rally around this little family and help carry them through this difficult time.
We’re holding onto hope, taking things one day at a time, and praying for the day Emersyn gets to come home where she belongs. 💕
