Hope for Baby Beau (Update 2/13/2026)

Lexi and Tommy DeLasalle are expecting their first baby, Beau, to be born in May. Beau DeLasalle is fighting for his life with severe right-sided Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH), a life-threatening condition affecting his lung development. Only 1 in 13,000 babies are affected by this condition in the US each year. Specialists at Texas Children's Hospital plan to conduct a fetal procedure on that is considered experimental in the US. These specialists are the only ones in the country providing hope to families affected by right side CDH. Beau is expected to undergo another surgery after delivery and remain in the NICU for 6–8 months. This young family from central Louisiana is facing a mountain of unexpected medical and living expenses, and they need your support. Lexi and Tommy DeLasalle are expecting their first child, a little boy named Beau, due in May 2026. Recently, they received devastating news. Beau has been diagnosed with right-sided Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH), a rare condition that affects about 1 in 13,000 babies in the U.S. In Beau’s case, there is a 34% occlusion into his lungs, and his lungs are currently functioning at only about 30% of where they should be. It’s life-threatening, and it requires highly specialized care. The specialists at Texas Children’s Hospital in Houston are the only team equipped to to conduct a unique fetal procedure that is still considered experimental in the US. After surgery and delivery, Lexi will be required to live within one mile of the hospital for 6–8 months in case of emergency. After being born, Beau will undergo another surgery, and he will remain in the NICU until his lungs develop enough to be weaned off of support. That means leaving their small town of Trout, Louisiana. It means relocating to Houston. It means rent, food, transportation, and daily living expenses on top of overwhelming medical costs for the foreseeable future. Lexi and Tommy's family are doing everything they can. Tommy travels to work on a drilling rig in New Mexico. They are young, and they are hardworking. I learned about their situation from Lexi's dad, Leamon Wilson, who is a dear friend of mine. They have a strong family. But strength doesn’t print money. And this road is long. I am personally donating $20,000 to help them get started. Now I’m asking you to give what you can. This fundraiser will help cover ongoing medical expenses, housing near Texas Children’s Hospital, and the cost of living so Lexi can be close to her baby and the only specialists in the world trained to care for him. Short-term, charitable shelters are available in Houston, but it is not a realistic long-term solution for a young first-time mother navigating a high-risk pregnancy, a big city, and a newborn in the NICU. If you can give, thank you. If you can’t, please share this page and keep Beau, Lexi, and Tommy in your prayers. Beau hasn’t taken his first breath yet, and he’s already fighting for it. Let’s make sure this young family doesn’t fight alone. -Greg Peeler
