2016 Fox Valley Ambassador Family The Ginsburgs

Meet the Ginsburg Triplet! Logan Oliver, Drea Rosalie, and Kaleb Westley born 8 weeks and 2 days early all under 4 lbs. and spent a combined total of 111 days in Advocate Sherman Hospital in Elgin before safely going home! Mandi and Brian Ginsburg we're preparing to become parents of triplets when Mandi's pregnancy got complicated and the babies came too early just a minute between each! It was a very scary time, but for children born premature just last Nov. they are developing strongly and making great gains. Logan even makes Mandi and Brian laugh with his preemie "grunts". The Ginsburg's story is one example of how March of Dimes is working to help children survive the trauma of premature birth and the difficult times that follow. March of Dimes is proud that we can be there to support hospital staff and build life saving tactics that help people like the Ginsburg's! "Without the research and statistics from the March of Dimes, I truly do not believe our babies would be thriving, or possibly even alive today. From immunizations for me to providing NICU care, surfactant and providing knowledge and tools for their nurses and doctors, our three preemies had a fighting chance." Mandi Ginsburg.
