4 days ago, I made a post to crowdfund for my brother and his wife due to emergency labour at 27 weeks, giving birth to a beautiful daughter whom is fighting for her life to grow in the incubator (outside her mummy's womb) now. The crowdfund is to support this couple's livelihood as they had spent huge amount of Ringgit Malaysia RM 22,739.09 for the baby's 4-day of stay at the nearest private hospital available to attend to the emergency at that moment. You can read more on that post by clicking here.

And I have received transfer of total 229.384SBD & 10STEEM into my wallet (as of now when I am writing this) from various Steemians. Thank you, you know who you are. Those in my wallet will be transferred to @denion at the end of the post's payout.

That means we have received a total of 325.844SBD and 10STEEM by today. Thank you everyone.

I wrote at that crowdfund's post to aim to support this couple half-month's family's expenditure which I calculated would be roughly 250SBD. Initially, I wanted to set a goal to support their one-month livelihood but 500SBD seems abit too big the number to me, hence I lower down expectation. I doubt we can reach there through crowdfunding. But looking at the funds collected by today, you all have proved me wrong - indeed we can reach the target of 500SBD to support their one-month's expenses.

If we can reach 500SBD, the amount will help them lessen their burden since they burned so much cash just for the 4-day stay at private. Also this is a very trying times for the couple, wife is still in emotional, mental and physical recovery, the husband can't help but to put on the "toughen up" and "man-up" responsibility as the head of the family. If you know my brother well, he is a good friend you will want to have. He will not put his burden on your shoulders, and even with burden, he will still seek to help others or cheer people up - well, life goes on right?

As I have mentioned in my previous post, the baby dropped in her weight in her few-days life. From 970gram to 790gram. Then she slowly gained back her weight > 812gram > 834 gram > 912gram > 988gram as of today. Good job to the wife pumping milk every 1.5hour to 2hourly at home. Bravo to the couple who everyday pack milk and deliver to the hospital (few times a day sometimes). Kudos to the husband juggling between taking care of wife, home, work, 1st daughter and hospital baby.

This is not to ask again for crowdfund (as we have reached way beyond the goal), but mainly to update the funds received and update of the baby and the couple. So far so good except undeniably it will be taxing on the couple, emotionally and physically. Doctors said if the baby can sail smoothly till 1.8kg without any complication, she will be in safe zone by then. We are keeping all the positive vibes up.

On the side note, if you think @denion and his wife & their daughters deserve more support - from supporting their half-month expenses to supporting their one-month expenses, every form of support is still welcomed.

Indeed alone we can't, together we can - @iamjadeline

Magic and miracle indeed can happen when kind and generous and helpful Steemians come together and offer their help and support and donation.

Once again, thank you everyone.
