No thanksRebecca Hernandez hasn't added a story.
My name is Rebecca. I'm mom to 8 beautiful children, all Miracles. They were all born premature, the earliest at 25 weeks weighing 1lb13oz. Despite their early appearances, none had health issues due to prematurity, a miracle in itself. We are facing many other health issues though.
Our 8th miracle was diagnosed with many birth defects before birth. We were told it would be a miracle if she survived until birth, but she did. She was diagnosed with a condition called OEIS complex and has already undergone over 20 surgeries with more to come. We have to travel out of state for her care.
Our 5th miracle was diagnosed with cancer in her foot in 2015. She underwent 7 rounds of chemotherapy before loosing her leg. She is doing great with a prosthetic but because she is still growing, she needs new ones every 6 months.
We also have our first miracle who has had type 1 diabetes for 10 years and our 2nd and 7th Miracles joined that club in 2015 as well.
We need to come up with funds to pay for our out of state travels, a new prosthetic, 4 insulin pumps (I have t1 diabetes too) as well as a very high deductible for next year. We are still paying on medical bills not covered by insurance for this year as well.
We have great faith that all our Miracles will live long lives and feel blessed that with modern technology, they have that opportunity. Please help us to be able to provide the care they need.
