Why I walk

Dear Friends and Family,

We are getting ready for another virtual March for Babies Walk.  We will walk here in Iowa City for all Moms and Babies.  We all probably know someone who has had a baby too early or a baby that was born with a birth defect.  In my family, both my kids and both of my sisters' kids were born early.  My sister and I were also born early.  We are raising money for the March of Dimes, so they can keep helping improve maternal and baby health.

Carson

-born 11 ½ weeks early

-weighed 3 pounds, 4 ounces

-spent 72 days in the NICU

Sara

-born 4 weeks early

-weighed 5 pounds, 11 ounces

-spent 10 days in the NICU

Carson has a new hair color in the attached photo.  He dyed his hair for the state football game.  His team got second place, but he didn't get to play because he broke his tibia at practice.  He started out little, but he is still growing!

Sara also has a new hair color in the attached photo.  She has experimented with a few different colors, and this is the latest.  Over Spring Break, she told me that she is considering a computer science minor at college.  She started off little too, but is growing and learning so much at college. 

Any amount of a donation would be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,

Jenny, Brad, Sara, and Carson Comer

When it comes to giving families the best possible start, we all have the power to help.

March of Dimes is dedicated to bringing people together to tackle America's maternal and infant health crisis—one person, one community, and one step at a time. More than a series of walks, March for Babies is an annual tradition that supports moms and babies every day, every step of the way.

March for Babies connects friends, families, and coworkers to improve the health of families nationwide. Together with March of Dimes, each step forward brings us closer to a healthy future for all.

Thank you for your support!
