Christian rocker Josh Wilson began raising money for his fellow band member Nathan Johnson, who lost his wife almost immediately after giving birth. He writes about it New York Post.
Guitarist Nathan Johnson and his wife Maggie were very happy just a few days ago. 27 June was born their daughter. The girl was named Aily Kat.
A few hours after the birth of the child, Maggie started having health problems and the doctors could not save the woman.
Megan went home yesterday to be with Jesus, Wilson wrote on the page GoFundMewhich in one day collected more than 256 000 dollars. "About 2: 40 in the morning, she gave birth to a wonderful miracle, which was called Ailey Kate."
“The birth went without complications. Nathan and Megan were with Eily for about 6 hours. Megan held her daughter in her arms, fed and rocked the baby. Nathan said they couldn't sleep because they were too agitated. They talked all night and all morning, ”says Josh Wilson.
At about 10 in the morning, Wilson sent Johnson a message that Megan had problems, and within an hour she was gone. Doctors did not specify the cause of death and did not elaborate on Megan’s problems.
“How can you help? You can give time, food and money. Let's give a lot more than we think. Believe me, Nathan needs our help now. Let's raise enough money for Nathan so that he can fully retire from other cases for at least 6 months. Let's help pay all his bills and food so that he does not think about it, taking care of his child, ”wrote Josh Wilson on the page GoFundMe.
The initial purpose of the fundraising was a modest amount of 40 thousand dollars, but since quite a few volunteers responded, Wilson updated the post with the amount two more times.
Singer Rae lynn shared a link GoFundMe with fans on your page Instagramwhere hundreds of commentators expressed their sympathy to the affected family.
“I can’t even imagine what kind of pain he is going through now, at a time when he should be happy,” she added Rae lynn.
“Please pray for him and donate so that he can be with his daughter as long as possible. Life is love and help to each other. Jesus, I pray that you will be with this lovely family. "
At the moment, 350 thousand dollars have already been collected.
