Managing Mommas and Babies In and Out of Hospital
Tax deductible
So my journey for caring for mothers and babies started many years ago. And I have been blessed to spend so much of my life truly doing what I love most caring for Mommas and Babies. Recently, after giving the unexpected news to several patients that they would not be parents from their current pregnancy. I was motivated to try to offer support and hope not just in the hospital but outside of the hospital as well.
I signed up to compete in my first Ironman a 1.5 mile swim, 75 mile bike ride, and 13.2 mile run around Chattanooga. My goal is to raise awareness and $5,000 for the March of Dimes whose focus is on the care and support for mothers and babies. I spend many of my days, nights, and weekends caring for these patients in the hospital, and I wanted to spend some additional time giving them hope and faith for their current and future pregnancies.
Upon starting this mission, I have been updating everyone on social media to keep me up to date and motivated with the long training. The responses I have gotten from everyone have blown me away with how many men and women have emailed, texted, written, called to say thank you for supporting them and giving them hope that all of us taking care of mothers and babies will be there for them in the best or the worst times of their lives.
Thank you again for your support and Gig'em to the March of Dimes!
