Ashley Kreyskop-Naglak

This episode we sat down with mom Ashley Kreyskop-Naglak from Levittown Pennsylvania. She lives there with her husband Blake and their furry friends.

Ashley and her husband Blake learned they were pregnant with their daughter Nora in January of 2023. The pregnancy was uncomplicated until about 26 weeks when Ashley started to experience rib pain. After going to the hospital, being treated and discharged, then readmitted, she learned that she was in liver failure, HELLP syndrome, and needs to be delivered emergently. Nora was born on June 3rd, 2023.

She did very well in the NICU until day 7 when things started to take an unexpected turn. An xray revealed that Nora had a hole in her bowel as a result of Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Nora passed away later that day.

Ashley is hosting a fundraiser in June for Nora’s birthday on June 2nd, 2024 at Triple Sun Spirits Co. in Newtown, Pennsylvania. This fundraiser will benefit the NEC society and other local pregnancy and infant loss nonprofits. You can purchase tickets with the link below.
