Our ambassador

 

 

Walk4London

We welcomed our daughter to the world at just 25 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy. London Grace Galloway was born weighing just 1 pound, 7.3 ounces. London spent exactly 4 months in the hospital, coming home 5 days after her Dad’s graduate school graduation. Although the birth of London was terrifying, this journey has taught us so much about our strength. Every day of London’s life in the NICU was emotional for us, but with support from NICU nurses, March of Dimes, friends and family we embraced every moment of it. There were days when we felt like things were going more backwards than forwards, but with faith and prayers we made it. Today London is thriving. Thank you for joining our family and countless others at March for Babies this year. Your support funds the research and programs that will help give all babies the best possible start. Thank you, Dylan and Yalonda Galloway
