My Story…

I'm so proud to be running for my son, Nolan, who was born with Spina Bifida almost 7 years ago. His first year of life was a busy one with seven surgeries, and thrilled to say he has not required any hospitalizations or surgeries since!
He has received amazing care at MGH and continues to be seen at Boston Childrens for urology and GI. 
Many of you know Nolan, who is an absolute joy. Always happy, loves food, and a big Bruins fan like his dad- he loves playing ball hockey in our driveway. You can always catch him in the recycling bin getting material for an art project, and is starting to read and write which brings us overwhelming pride. He loves school, his friends, and his siblings. He just started riding a bike without training wheels! Every milestone has been extra victorious. 
He has been able to understand Spina Bifida in an age appropriate way- taking pride in scars and understanding it's okay to be a little different, and we wouldn't change a thing about that beautiful boy. God has gifted us a real miracle with Nolan. Thank you for your support!
