Lima, Ohio Area WalkAmerica
Hi, my name is Holly Bowersock and I am the family team coordinator for our walk in Lima, Ohio. Let me tell you a little bit about my connection to the March of Dimes and the reason I am participating in WalkAmerica. My son, Jonathon, was born at 24 weeks. He weighed 1 lb. 3 oz. and spent the first five months of his life at Columbus Children's Hospital. Jonathon is know a very happy and energetic 3 year old with minor health complications. We are thankful for all of the research that the MOD has done over the years and that is why we continue to support their prematurity campaign.
My goal, as the family team coordinator, is to get more family teams registered and participating in our local Walk on April 29. If you are from the Lima area and would like to help support the March of Dimes give the local office a call at 1-419-534-3600 to get registered. You can also contact me by e-mail at bowersock3@ohiolink.net
I hope to hear from you soon!!

Trying to start support group in Canton area
Hey everyone! My former 26 weeker is now 16 months old and doing GREAT!!!!! I have a friend who recently gave birth to a 27 weeker who is also doing well. We're both shocked at the lack of support for parents of preemies or babies in the NICU at Mercy and Aultman. We want to get a support group started. If anyone would be interested in participating please email me at clarasmommy020805@yahoo.com

New to the Dayton Area
Hi Ohio... My name is Tracy. I moved to Ohio last year from St. Louis. WOW it's taken me a whole year to get adjusted to life out here. My story is long but short details... My daughter Katlyne was born at 23 1.2 weeks and lived for 110 days before passing away in our arms. Our son Casey was born 2 years ago at 33 weeks. He spent 10 days in a step down NICU before being able to come home.  Both were born early due to Preeclampsia (lucky me)> I am finally recovered from damaged done to me and Casey is well and healthy.

NE Ohio
Glad to hear your home and doing well. I am located in Alabama and we use to live up in Alliance. We had our oldest up at Mercy back in 2000. Our youngest we had down here in Alabama which was 36 weeks and she went up to UAB for a month. She was early and still weighed 8lbs and 3ozs. At that time she was the 2nd to the biggest the NICU had at that time.

O-H-I-O
Attention Ohio!!! I just wanted to say hi, welcome you all to Share and invite you to participate in every aspect that you feel interested in within Share and the March of Dimes. There are so many ways you can get involved and I hope that you stick around... make yourselves at home and if your feeling really good, stop in at the Cafe and have a drink.
I'm in North Central Ohio and I'm really hoping to connect with other families from Ohio. I'd love to put Ohio back on the March of Dimes Map.
God Bless,
Amy

Anyone with a preemie at Beeghly in Boardman?
I had my daughter at 29 weeks, and she is our little miracle. She's doing wonderful, although still in an isolette she is beating all the odds. I was just wondering if anyone else in my area was going through this too, it is often comforting to have someone to talk to when sitting in the NICU.

Our daughter was born at 26 weeks, and stayed in the NICU at MVH March 25, 2006-June 9, 2006. She is now a healthy, happy 13 month old! We LOVE the staff at the NICU, and have maintained a relationship with her nurses.

Elaria's story
Hi, my name is Reba, and our baby, Elaria was born on 04/28/98 at Miami Valley Hospital in Dayton. 2 1/2 months early, our Preemie weighed in at 1 pound, 5 ounces. I was diagnosed with Toxemia / Preeclampsia which in effect forced Elaria to come early. I know it was 9 years ago, but when I started reading some stories, it brought it all back. But just to let you know, she is fine and healthy with no problems except she seems to think the world revolves around her...
