Baby Darby

darbyhospital

Some really good friends of mine are going through a horrible time right now.  Baby Darby is 11 weeks old and has had 2 surgeries this week.  She has a condition called Biliary Atresia.  This is a condition of the liver and will result in her eventually needing a liver transplant.

Monday Darby had a surgical procedure called a Kasai procedure.  This is a temporary fix for a serious problem. Wednesday, Darby was rushed back in for an emergency surgery due to internal bleeding, after taking care of this she quit breathing in recovery.  This has been extremely difficult for my friends.  I want to help and I hope that you do too.

Bobby and Janna live about one and half hours from the hospital.  With every minute being so critical, Bobby has missed a lot of work.  They have 4 other children, one that is just a toddler.  I hope that you can find it in your hearts to help them out a little.  Every little bit will help them through this difficult time.

I have set up a donate button that will deposit into Janna’s Paypal account.  If you can help that would be great, even $5.00 would help them out.  I would also love it if you would post the following banner on your site that links to this post.  Thank you so much, and please pray for them.

    Will gladly spread the need for support and help for this family. Already have one donation to help. Too many people take their health for granted and their slight bumps in life as a crisis.We all should be happy for the great things and people we have.
