Meet Alyssa and Ethan

Hello, we are the McWhorter family. My husband and I have two children, who were both preemie babies. Alyssa was born 5 ½ weeks early at 5 lbs. 7 oz. Ethan was born 3 months early at 2 lbs. 12 oz. As a parent you always hope for a healthy child birth, but when life give you a different experience it can be scary. The March of Dimes provided more support than we could hope for during our time in the hospital. It was a difficult to watch our children fight for their lives due to being early. Alyssa did very well and came home from the hospital in 12 days. Ethan, being so early, was in the hospital around two months. There were moments we did not know if he would even be able to come home from the hospital. He was small but strong. During birth, Ethan went too long without oxygen which caused brain damage. Though both of our children have struggled with medical issues, Alyssa with asthma, and Ethan with Subglottic stenosis and Cerebral Palsy, they are both strong. We hold on to our faith in Christ and lean on support from family and friends. Thank you for allowing us to share a small part of our story. Please join us in supporting March of Dimes to help bring hope to so many.
