March of Dimes

As you all know we were born at 26 weeks gestation, that’s 14 weeks too early! We are now happy and healthy and just celebrated our 2nd birthday. However it has been a long road filled with 4 months in the NICU at St. Agnes where we got wonderful treatment from some very loving nurses, including our favorite Miss Kelly and Miss Celeste. Even now we are still seeing an occasional specialist and weekly visits from physical and speech therapists. Mommy would give anything to be able to snap her fingers and stop premature births from occurring. She wouldn’t wish what we have been through on anyone, and we are the lucky ones who got to go home. While she can’t snap her fingers and make it better, she can walk in the annual March of Dimes walkathon – March for Babies and raise money so someone can find a way to prevent prematurity and other birth defects.

We all know the economy is less than fabulous, however ever dollar you can donate will make a difference and it could be your dollar that puts the March of Dimes over the edge and helps them figure this epidemic out. We are also looking for people to walk with us on Sunday May 3rd at Camden Yards in Baltimore, Maryland. Registration is at 8am and the 4-mile leisurely walk around Baltimore starts at 9. We will be there, being pushed by Mommy and Daddy and some of their friends. We went last year with our Aunt Courtney, who is now about 32 weeks pregnant with a little girl, and we had a blast, we even ran into some of our friends from the St. Agnes NICU. Last year Mommy raised over $1,000, please help her reach her very ambitious goal of $2,000.
