Kaden is a twin and he was born at 24 weeks and 1 day weighing 1lb 10oz. His brother Jaden was born weighing 1lb 6 oz, and sadly he did not make it. Kaden went through a rough time in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, but he made it through and is now a thriving 10 year old. Thanks to March of Dimes and all of their research, I have one of my sons here with me today. With the help from others, one day all babies can be born healthy so that no parent has to lose a child or spend time in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit. one day... all babies will be born healthy today... too many moms and families know the heartbreak of having a baby born fighting to survive I've joined March for Babies because the March of Dimes champions the needs of moms and babies in our community and across the nation.
