Support Baby Asher’s Life-Saving Heart Surgery

We’re a small family from the Waikato. After two years of failed IVF, we were incredibly blessed to conceive our beautiful son, Asher, naturally — our miracle baby.

While still in the womb, Asher was diagnosed with a rare heart defect called a double aortic arch. This condition forms a vascular ring that compresses his windpipe and esophagus. He also has a floppy airway (tracheomalacia), which further restricts his breathing.

Since birth, Asher has had many hospital visits and specialist appointments. He is now scheduled for a camera scope at Starship on August 11, this procedure will guide the surgical team in planning how to repair the double aortic arch.

We’re reaching out for support to help with the growing costs — including travel to Auckland, accommodation, and time off work. Isaac is self-employed, which means no paid leave, so every day off is unpaid.

Any donation, big or small, would be deeply appreciated. If you’re unable to give, a share or kind word means the world to us too.

Thank you for supporting our little fighter.

With love and gratitude,

Isaac & Katie
