Our ambassador
Meet Evan and Thomas
Meet Evan and Thomas
Brothers, born 7 years apart, both prematurely. Evan was born at 30 weeks, weighing 3 lbs. 7 oz., and spent 55 days in the NICU. Thomas was born at 26 weeks, weighing 2 lbs. 3 oz., and spent 91 days in the NICU.
Mommy Vanessa says, "I have been an active volunteer for the March of Dimes for the past 7 years. Having a preemie baby in early 2006 really changed my outlook on life. I felt the need to do something to increase prematurity awareness and convey how important it is to continue research into both decreasing prematurity rates and improving medicine’s ability to care for preemies even more. I also needed to connect with other families who had preemie babies to share our experiences and struggles. My heart goes out to all those preemie babies, so I’m very passionate to volunteer in any way with the March of Dimes."
"Becoming the 2015 Ambassador family for Idaho truly touches my heart. Knowing that I was potentially high risk to have another baby, the staff and families I met through March of Dimes helped me stay positive and strong throughout my pregnancy, especially when Thomas was born at 26 weeks. They were there for me. They kept me strong. I want to be there for those families in need of support, who are going through the same struggles as we had. We are honored to be chosen as the ambassador family for 2015 and share the story of our experiences in the preemie-baby world."
Evan loves to play with Legos, collecting rocks, traveling, making paper airplanes and having nerf gun battles. His favorite sports are golf, karate, tennis, swimming and skiing. He looks forward to running the “Pacers” program at his school. He ran the most miles last year - 171 miles! He is trying to get the most miles again this year. With his Dad as an airline pilot, Evan has been to many countries, more than most kids. He has been to Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, Spain, England, as well as all across the United States. He wants to be a geologist when he grows up (or a race car driver). He loves to collect and study rocks!
Thomas is a happy and healthy one-year-old! His family calls him the Tasmanian devil baby because he takes everything out of the cabinets and drawers and makes a big mess. He is now walking and his developmental progress is right on track!
