My Story…

In 2020, our family welcomed our sweet little boy, Marco MacDonald. Though he was only with us for a short time, he filled our hearts with so much love and joy, and we carry his memory with us in everything we do. 💙

This year, our kids Jaxson and Hailey are excited to run in the Butterfly Run for their brother Marco and raise awareness about pregnancy loss, infant loss, pregnancy after loss, and infertility in Ottawa. 

 All proceeds go to the Roger Neilson Children’s Hospice, providing families with care, comfort, and support when they need it most.

Every step we take is for Marco and all the little ones gone too soon. We would love for you to join us- running, walking, cheering, or donating- so together we can honour Marco and support families during these hardest moments. 💙🦋

Donate to help Lisa raise money for Butterfly Run Ottawa 2025’s fundraising campaign.
