How you can help Silas and his family

This is baby Silas' family 

This story is not only near to my heart; because I am a Momma of 2 babies that were born to soon. The Momma of this family is one of my best and dearest friends. 

Silas was born on August 8th at 23 weeks. This is 4 months too soon. Silas came in at a whopping 1lb 2oz. He is 11 inches long. He is already fighting all the odds; and continues to amaze us all.
However, he and his family, have a long road ahead of them. Silas will remain in the NICU for the first months of his life.

This is not only hard on his Mommy and Daddy...Silas has three big sisters who are waiting for him at home. When a baby is this small; their parents usually don't get to hold them for weeks (sometimes months).
While it is emotionally taxing...there are also many medical bills associated with this kind of a hospital stay.

I am working on a Limited Edition collection for Silas and his family. 50% of each product will benefit them. I've set up a donation button on my page as well; to help with the medical bills, and everything else that adds up. I really want to see this family only have to focus on what is the most important; and that is bringing Silas home!! There is no set amount. 
Thank you so much in advance for what we all will do for this family!

Also...if you crochet or sew; please keep an eye out for donations needed.
