Tomorrow me and me husband, son, and sister are getting up extra early, and we are going down to our park, Sedgwick County Park, to walk. But its not just any walk. We are walking for all babies that are born to early. The March Of Dimes Walk America. I feel very proud to walk. Premuturity has hit very close to my family. I have been lucky and have not had a premuture baby but my Aunt lost her first 2 kids. The first one a girl born at 25 weeks and the 2nd a boy born a 27 weeks. they were born 11 months apart. The girl Alicia lived 2 hours and the boy Jonthan lived 1 hour. My grandmas sister's daughter had twins. they were born at 29 weeks. luckly they survived now but they are very small and have breathing problems. So my question is Will you walk with me? If you cant walk with the March of Dimes you can go to my site and donate. www.walkamerica.org/cousinto2premies

I am impressed that you are community minded, & care for the welfare of others. If only there were others like you. I'm afriad that I can't join in, living in Auastralia as I do.

That is a really great thing you are doing! I hope that you get lots of donations, and more importantly, I hope that this post will draw attention to this worthy cause. I cannot imagine how helpless a parent must feel when their infant is born prematurely. I am going to find out when they are doing this in my area and plan to participate.
