Over 4,000 people participated in the March of Dimes, Walk for Babies on Sat. April 27th. in downtown Tampa. The day broke with families, corporate sponsors and caring volunteers strolling onto the University of Tampa campus under the morning light.
It was very moving to be apart of The Walk for Babies and see how many lives this walk affects. Parents with bannners displaying success stories and also the stories where a child was lost. It brought back to me the afternoon that I recieved a call from my mother-in-law that my wife was at the hospital.
Our little Hannah was very early, due to abrupted placenta and both my wifes and daughters lives hung in the balance.
Hannah now is perfect and everything worked out; however, for so many the complications are life altering. It was our pleasure to be apart of the March of Dimes walk this year and we look forward to many years of doing our part to raise awareness and support this wonderful charity.
