2011 March of Dimes Ambassadors


I just wanted to say thank you for all the support that has been pouring in over the last few days, it really means a lot to all of us.

I also wanted to share with everyone that Davis (and Brian and I) have been selected to be the 2011 Oregon March of Dimes Ambassadors. You can follow our events with the March of Dimes blog: http://oregonmod.com/2011/02/04/introducing-our-2011-chapter-ambassadors/.

My first duty as ambassador was giving my testimony at the state capitol for a hearing on birth defects: http://oregonmod.com/2011/02/14/our-day-at-the-oregon-state-capital/. I had to give my testimony the day after I found out about our new baby also having gastroschisis, so needless to say it was an emotional hearing but even more worth fighting for!

Also if you would like to get involved in one of our events you can get information at: http://www.marchofdimes.com/oregon/.

Thanks again for all the support!
