Hello to My Village,
I am participating in The Run For Southlake once again for the 6th year! As in years past, I have set incredibly challenging run goals and this year is no different! I will run 26KM in hopes of raising $26 000. My focus continues to be sharing the goals with my 4 children, who all have benefitted from Southlake's phenomenal care. The kids will join me at the start line to finish the final 5KM together.
Again, this year it is our goal to have the largest and youngest Team to hit the pavement. Our Team motto is "Kids Helping Kids"... so let's rally to support the youngest youngsters that Southlake cares for.
Personally, the NICU is a place that is near and dear to our family. In 2017, our twin boys entered our world 8 weeks too soon. They were unable to breathe independently and were rushed to the NICU for urgent care. Connor and Kyle experienced significant difficulties in many areas, but the team of doctors, nurses and therapists at Southlake were phenomenal and always remained compassionate. During our 26 days in the NICU, we watched the NICU team work miracles, not just with our children but for many other little ones as well. Their tireless effort and constant care for our most vulnerable and teeniest people is what motivates me to give back and support future Southlake families.
Beyond the amazing efforts made for our twins, Southlake has delivered and cared for our 2 older children as well. As a family, we have received care within many departments of the hospital, including L&D, PP, NICU, PAEDS, ENT, ED and OT. We are so grateful to have this incredible resource so close to home, but funding is extremely limited and hospitals rely heavily on community support and donations... please join us in supporting our incredible hospital.
While donations are always amazing and appreciated... we would love to have you join the Team and meet us out there on April 28th.
"Kids Helping Kids"!!!!!!
