My Story…

Six years ago, my twin boys, Marek and Cohen were born at 24 weeks gestation on the day before Mother’s Day. Mark lived for 15 days. Cohen is now in kindergarten and thriving. Cohen spent 131 days in the NICU. Their younger brother Sully also needed the NICU for 3 days. Sully is now 2. In addition, our nephew, Keagan, was in the NICU. So, to say we are grateful for the NICU is an understatement. We take part in the Mother’s Day walk yearly. I can’t think of a better way to spend Mother’s Day than helping the sickest of babes to go home. Thank you for your support. 💙💙❤️💙

Description

1 in 8 babies born will need the care of the NICU. Help us give every infant a fighting chance to live the best life possible.Your support of the Sport Chek Mother’s Day Run, Walk and Ride helps to provide the equipment and resources to give them just that.

Some babies come into the world as early as 23 weeks and weigh as little as 500 grams. How can we help them live the healthiest lives possible? The care these babies receive in the first minutes, hours, days and sometimes even months in the NICU can mean life or death and have lifelong impact on their development and future health.

Proceeds from the 2019 Sport Chek Mother’s Day Run, Walk & Ride will go towards the redevelopment of the Foothills Hospital NICU. This new space will put leading-edge research into action, combine the very best in people, space and technology and ensure that every newborn has access to the specialized care and attention only world-class NICU’s can provide.
