Overview

• Cole Jordan Groth, a newborn with congenital cardiac issues, experienced uncontrolled bleeding for over seven hours following a circumcision on April 14.
• The bleeding caused seizures, kidney, liver, and neurological damage, with Cole losing nearly half his blood volume before receiving an urgent transfusion.
• Emergency surgeries were performed to remove necrotic segments of his intestines after further complications arose on April 19.
• Cole remains in critical condition in the NICU/ICU, requiring daily transfusions, intravenous nutrition, and pain management, with a prolonged hospital stay expected.
• His parents, Tim and Gabrielle Groth, have launched a public campaign and GoFundMe to raise awareness about medical risks and support ongoing medical costs.
