    Premature Birth

    Hi, We are the Carter Family. Christopher, Kendra, Effy (7) and Ezlynn (3 weeks). November 30th, 2018 our lives changed forever with the addition of Ezlynn who was born 3 months early at 28 weeks. Her mom's placenta grew a non cancerous tumor where it was taking the blood flow and oxygen away from Ezlynn. Ezlynn became anemic so we tried a blood fusion to her to see if that would help. It didn't and the tumor grew 2 centimeters. Ezlynn was getting worst so we did an emergency-c section and everything went great with the amazing care of Avera Staff. When the placenta came out the tumor was the size of a baseball. Ezlynn weighed 2'.11" and 14.5" long. Mom and Ezlynn are doing great but just a long road for Ezlynn to grow. Mom is with Baby and I am at home working to try and keep ends met and visiting from Pierre SD there on Weekends. Any help would be greatly appreciated and wish you a merry Christmas and happy new year! Thanks
