Every day, thousands of babies are born too soon, too small and often very sick. I'm walking in March for Babies to support these children and their families. As you know, my precious grandsons Ethan and Owen were born prematurely. Owen is now a thriving 6 1/2 year old, and he fills our lives with joy. We continue to miss Ethan everyday. This cause is very important to me and my family and we need your help. Please support my walk. Making a secure donation is easy: just click the 'donate now' button on this page. Thank you for helping to give all babies a healthy start!
I am also sharing with you a message from my daughter and her family:
Every day, thousands of babies are born too soon, too small and often very sick. As most of you know, our sons, Ethan and Owen were born at only 26 weeks, 3 days gestation. Both boys weighed about 2 pounds. After a strong, heroic fight our precious Ethan passed away later that day. Our family will have a missing link from that day forward. We miss him each and every day. Owen spent 93 days in the NICU before we finally brought him home. Owen is now a happy, healthy, funny, 6.5 year old. We are eternally thankful for his health and happiness as we watch him grow. We walk to celebrate our boys. We walk for all future babies. We walk to help ensure all babies have a healthy start. Please help us honor Ethan's life and support Owen's journey. Please consider supporting our team and The March of Dimes. Every dollar counts! No donation is too small. Making a secure donation is easy: just click the 'donate now' button on this page. Thank you for helping me give all babies a healthy start! March for Babies 2020 will be held Sunday April 26, 10 AM, at SteelStacks in Bethlehem, PA. If you would like to walk with us, please sign up as a team member today!!! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your love and support.
