"Every year, thousands of babies are born prematurely, facing a fragile start to life. My grandson's journey in the NICU was a stark reminder of the challenges these families endure..."
My grandson was born prematurely at just 27 weeks, weighing less than three pounds. The 69 days he spent in the NICU were a terrifying and uncertain time for our family. But thanks to the incredible care he received and the unwavering support of the March of Dimes, he's now a thriving young boy with a bright future.
This experience opened my eyes to the reality of prematurity – it's more common than many people realize. Every year, countless families face the challenges of premature birth.
The March of Dimes plays a vital role in supporting families like ours, funding critical research, and advocating for policies that ensure all mothers and babies have access to quality healthcare.
I believe in the March of Dimes because it's personal to me, and because it's the right thing to do.
