My new cousin

[thefrogprincess]

Hey everyone, my new cousin was born yesterday, he was 8 weeks early. He only weighs 3 pounds. Fortunatly he was breathing on his own but they put him in an incubator to make it easier for him. We're all pulling for the little guy.

I work at Motherhood Maternity and we sell awareness bracelets for the March of Dimes which has done amazing things for premies. They are only a dollar but every penny goes to them. If you would like to buy a bracelet to help save premies visit www.maternitymall.com to find a Motherhood store near you.

I just donated in January, my mom is a labor and delivery nurse and has seen so many preemies and it has always made quite the impression on me. I completly understand where you are coming from, I raise money for CF (of course) as well as the MS society because my hubbie and I have 2 nephews (6 and 5) that both have MS. I think this might be something appropriate to post in the adults/family section, because not everybody seems to come to this site. If you are selling the bracelets again in about 6 months or so, I'd love to know about it, I'd be interested in donating and helping.

Just an update:

He's doing great, they say he might be able to come home earlier than normal because he's doing so well. YAY. He's eating on his own, and gaining wait at a good rate!!
