Love and Support for Isaac Leo
Donation protected
From Samantha, his mother: "Our baby Isaac Leo is here! Two months early, but he is here and doing well. Born April 8, 7:09am - 3lbs, 5 oz - 14 in. long.
There are far too many details to be shared on a Facebook post, and quite frankly, a bit exhausting to share with everyone curious, so I'll keep it (kind of) short.
Baby Isaac has some complications we've known about for a while, particularly some spinal issues and something called OEIS complex. It's very rare and if you're curious, feel free to Google it.
He was born here in Tucson but was transported to Phoenix Children's Hospital the same day because there are very good surgeons there who have dealt with these kinds of issues before. He will have to have several surgeries and will be in the NICU there for at least a couple months.
I had an emergency c-section and am recovering at TMC. Stephan is able to be with Isaac in Phoenix at the moment.
Isaac is very strong and doing well. He will have his first surgery in the next few days. We have a long and difficult road ahead so please be praying for all of us. Pray for wisdom for all the doctors and surgeons and specialists involved, who are thankfully very knowledgeable and optimistic.
Anyone who wants to know more or how they can help or anything else, please just know we are in the thick of it right now and probably can't get back to you very soon if you do reach out, but we will try to keep updates as new developments arise.
I feel that this Holy Week before Easter is a very wonderful time for Isaac to have been born and begin his life outside the womb. God knows what lies ahead for all of us, and He is providing for us and for Isaac every step of the way.
"Be still, and know that I am God." - Psalm 46:10"
Stefan and Samantha are two of the hardest working people I know. Not only do they support their other six children, but they are active in their church and are devote Catholics. They look to better the world and are always doing more than expected. Please consider giving to lessen their load and reduce some stress during this tough time. If you can't donate, please pray for mom and baby's health and share this page. Thank you for your support and time.
