Today marks the second anniversary of Madeline Alice Spohr’s birth.
Today I weep a little more than usual for my friends, Heather and Mike.
Today I weep for the loss of my son’s friend, Maddie.
Ethan and Maddie
Today I reflect on how extremely lucky I am to have had a second birthday with my own preemie.
Snoozing and sunbathing in the incubator
Today I hope and pray for Baby Binky Spohr, growing steadily inside of Mama Spohr, to be born healthy, happy, and not too early.
Today I ask you to give what you can to the Friends of Maddie Foundation — for Maddie, for Ethan, for Aidan, for all of us parents of preemies who spent far too long in the NICU, for all the babies who fight daily to survive because they were born too soon.
Under the lights in his incubator
November is Prematurity Awareness Month. Please join me in donating to the Friends of Maddie Foundation TODAY to celebrate Miss Maddie Moo’s life and the success of my own preemie baby.
