March for Babies: Reach

http://www.marchforbabies.org

TV Journalist and March of Dimes Volunteer Jane Clayson tells her story about the premature birth of her son William.
William was born weighing only 2 pounds, thirteen ounces and spent three months in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
But thanks to his family's support, advanced medical care and research the March of Dimes helped fund, young William, today, is a vibrant little boy.
Jane Clayson and her family formed a March for Babies Family Team to help support the March of Dimes mission to give every baby a healthy start.
Visit marchforbabies.org to form your own family team or to find out more information.

My daughter Kim is walking for the 1st time for the March of Dimes. I have two healthy grandaughters by her and she wants to show her love and support to the less fortunate. We will keep you in our prayers.

sorry to hear you lost your baby. I lost my son in Dec 07 in a hunting accident he was only 18, but he was a preemie and he had ADHD and was tongue tied. But what a wonderful person he turned into. Until his life was taken from him. from one achy mom's heart to another...god bless you.

My close friends are walking and I am happy to help.

My son, Seth, was born 6 weeks early & spent 19 days in the NICU. March of Dimes took great care of me & my family, helping us with information, support and any other needs we had. I have made a team to walk in the March for Babies this year & am excited to help in any way I can for this great cause.

I had twin baby girls name sofia and lillian. Sofia was born November 3, 2009 at 22 weeks the doctoors did not take her to NICU she passed 30 mins later. Lillian was born 6 days later on the 9th at 23 weeks, they did not take her as well, she died in about the same amount of time. I am very greatful for the time i hads with them and for the chance to experience a mothers love. I have started a team to walk in the march to remember my daughters.

I can't believe the negativity and ignorance of people on this thread!People should look at their lives and count their blessings they have before passing judgement about the MOD.We had twins born 13 weeks early at 1lb. 11oz and 2lbs. Our daughter fought very hard for 5 1/2 months until God called her to heaven with him. The March of Dimes could not prevent this from happening, but the funds they raise help research things that can help babies in the future to get the medical care they need.
