Family of Baby with Critical Heart Condition Needs Your Help

Leslie and Will Pauley's month-old son Matthew is suffering from Critical Aortic Stenosis (narrowing of the aortic valve). Matthew is a fighter, he's had three heart catheterizations and remains on a ventilator in the Cardiac Intensive Care Unit at Egleston Children's Hospital in Atlanta. His lungs need to get stronger before he can undergo open heart surgery to repair his leaky mitral valve. Matthew and his twin brother Nicholas were born at Northside Cherokee Hospital in Canton on September 16th. Mom is a 4th grade teacher at Cherokee Charter Academy and Dad is a Cherokee County Sheriff's deputy. Will says, "My son is an inspiration to our family to never give up. He has given us strength during our worst days. He truly is Superman." As you'd expect, there are mounting medical expenses for the Pauley family as well as the daily expense of gas and food as the hospital is an hour from home. A Go Fund Me account has been established for those who can help.
