About
Katie and Nick welcomed their first child, Juniper ‘Junie’ Faye, into the world on December 6th. During Katie’s pregnancy doctors discovered that Junie had a heart defect. Now that Junie is here and more comprehensive testing has been performed Junie has been diagnosed with 4 heart defects, complete AV Canal Defect, ASD, VSD, and double outlet right ventricle.
Junie spent her first few weeks of life in the NICU at Rush Copley Hospital in Aurora. She received excellent care there, but the pediatric cardiologists felt that she had maxed out the care that Rush Copley could offer, and Junie was rushed to Lurie’s Children’s hospital on December 22nd. Six months, several hospitals and open-heart surgery, Junie is home. We want to help her continue to get stronger and help our friends.
Nick and Katie grew up in Batavia. Nick performed with The Heligoats, Hungry Mountain, August West and others and is featured on the Heligoats "Back to the Lake," record.
