Baby Henry Arthur Gomez was born to Ashley and Phil on January 12, 2020. After a tough pregnancy, the doctors decided to deliver by c-section to avoid further complications.
This little guy was strong and resilient, but unfortunately he was born with five different defects in his heart. Henry had several procedures, and even open-heart surgery. After 6 weeks of fighting, he passed away and is now at rest.
Things were tough financially for his parents even before he was born, but now, after weeks of Ashley recovering and Phil being barely able to work between constant trips to the hospital and trying to move their family into his mom's home after having to give up their apartment, things are especially hard. They're behind on bills (even before Henry was born), having to spend tons of money on traveling and eating out (because of the constant traveling), and have all sorts of various other costs building up due to this prolonged hospital stay. Now that Henry has passed on, there will be additional costs to consider.
Ashley and Phil would never ask people for money of their own accord, which is why I've made this fundraiser. My hope is that people can share and donate, even small amounts, to ease this burden for this small, precious family.
