Created June 15th, 2026

The Shipman family is in need of our support. Kayla, an ICU nurse, and Ben, a police officer, have dedicated their lives to serving our community. 

At just 30 weeks pregnant, Kayla was hospitalized due to recurrent placental abruptions. Placental abruptions are life threatening for both mom and baby. As you can imagine, this experience has been traumatizing for the whole family.

Kayla will remain hospitalized until baby Hunter is delievered. Due to the abruptions, he is expected to arrive prematurely and will likely require some time to adjust and grow in the NICU.

While Kayla focuses on keeping herself and baby Hunter safe, Ben is balancing work, hospital visits, and caring for their 4-year-old daughter, Allie. 


As the Shipman family navigates this difficult season, any support will help ease the financial burden of an extended hospital admission for both Kayla and baby Hunter and the extensive medical bills that follow. 

If you are able to donate or share this fundraiser, your support means the world during this difficult time. ❤️
