Let me tell you about them.
Momma is one of my dearest friends.
We share so many things in common.
We can finish each other sentences, talk without even speaking, laugh at
nothing and know why, and pick up a conversation 2 days later without missing a
beat. She is part of the Stillwater March for Babies Committee, and since she
knew she would have a newborn at the time of the walk, she and her family
joined Team Finn’s Fans to help us meet our fundraising goals! Her older daughter
is almost 2, and Finn loves her. In
fact, this was our Transformation Tuesday picture today:
Baby Girl #2 was due the 2nd week of
September. Scheduled C-section for September
8. Until last week. Thursday her doctor said she had high blood
pressure and sent her to the local hospital.
Friday, due to pre-eclampsia, they transferred her by ambulance to the same hospital I had
Finn at. Yesterday they told her it was
a waiting game. This morning they told
her it was BABY DAY! What a ride! Lucy was born at 4:07 this afternoon weighing
3 pounds 8 oz and 15.5 inches long.
And it’s not fair. NO
ONE should have to go through the fear and questions they are going through
right now – and what we did 3 years ago.
It’s scary. It’s tough. It’s life threatening. It’s just not fair. That’s why March of Dimes is so important to
me and my family. We want to see premature
birth eradicated. Figure out why it
happens; figure out how to treat it; figure out how to prevent it. Save the Mommas. SAVE THE BABIES!
While she has a long row to hoe, Baby Lucy should do
alright. Girls fare better than boys in
the NICU. She has great support. All the research from the last 76 years of
March of Dimes are on her side. She’s a
fighter! And she is LOVED.
Here’s how you can help Baby Lucy and other babies like her:
- Join Team Finn’s Fans and raise money for the March of Dimes
- Donate to our team and help us meet our goal
We want all families to be blessed with big, full-term,
healthy, take-me-home babies! Don’t you?
Join us!
