I'm so excited to run the 2024 Boston Marathon as a member of the Miles for Miracles team. Our goal is to help the brave kids at Boston Children's Hospital receive the best care possible.
As a mom of two young kids, I'm so grateful to have this world class children's hospital so close to home.
Last year, my family learned how important quality medical care is after our son Logan was born 5 weeks premature. Logan's lungs collapsed shortly after birth. An incredible team of doctors and nurses, along with state-of-the art medical equipment saved his life.
I'm raising money so other kids like Logan can receive the same level of care... Kids like my patient partner Joey Zwolinski.
Joey was born with multiple cardiac defects and spent most of his first year of life at Boston Children's Hospital. At just 11 months old, Joey has already had 3 open heart surgeries.
The good news: After a 241 day admission, Joey came home from the hospital just before Thanksgiving, and he gets to spend the holidays with his mom, dad, big brother Chase and big sister Isabella. Joey's mom tells me Boston Children's Hospital saved Joey's life.
Every dollar I raise for Boston Children's Hospital funds the very best medical care, breakthrough research and vital support services for sick kids and their families. Your gift will:
- help children from your town and across the world get a second chance at life;
- give kids battling the most complex diseases care they can't find anywhere else;
- fuel 3,000+ researchers working to develop new treatments and cures;
- support patient programs, like music and art therapy, to let kids be kids, even during long hospital stays;
- help patient families in crisis with urgent needs, such as food, clothing and housing;
- deliver the most compassionate, leading-edge care to every child who needs it.
Please support my fundraising and help the incredible kids and families at Boston Children's Hospital.
