Hogan Family

Mabry was born at 31 weeks and spent 30 days in the NICU. She is small, but mighty! I recall the long days of juggling feedings with a preemie in the NICU and a preschooler at home; but each week we witnessed exciting milestones. The NICU nurses at Union Hospital were nothing short of incredible, taking such great care of Mabry for her first full month on this Earth. It grew harder and harder to leave her behind at the hospital each day, but we knew she was sin great hands. We still do not know what caused Mabry to be born early, but we know it was God’s plan and he used that time to grow our faith and raise our awareness of March of Dimes. We sure are grateful and proud of the thriving toddler that the she has grown into! Before Mabry was born, we did not know much about March of Dimes. Now, we are advocates for March of Dimes because of what they’ve done for our little one and millions of other precious little ones. There is so much gratitude in our hearts for March of Dimes and all their hard work that gives more babies a fighting chance. It is an honor to be able to give back, especially after the work and research of March of Dimes. They immensely helped our sweet Mabry have a successful story and we are blessed to have the opportunity to give back in this way. We are excited to not only carry the banner on the day of the March, but to raise awareness of those who have not needed March of Dimes yet. To all those who work for March of Dimes or volunteer their time or money for this cause, keep up the good work.
