Batson's Children's Hospital
Batson's
Children Hospital is just one of the hospitals that are apart of the
University of Mississippi Medical Center (UMCC). While Gray was not in
this particular hospital while he was in the NICU, he did go to the Eli
Manning Clinic in the Children's Hospital for check ups and testing
after he had been discharged from the NICU. This hospital provided us
with a great pediatrician and they helped to give us peace of mind
knowing that whatever obstacles we may encounter throughout Gray's
growth and development they'd be there for us.
Ronald McDonald House Charities
The Ronald McDonald House "provides a “home-away-from-home” for
families so they can stay close by their hospitalized child at little or
no cost."
Shedrick and I stayed at the Ronald McDonald multiple times while Gray was in the NICU. It was so nice to be able to be close to him and not worry about the finances of it.
March of Dimes
The
Mission of March of Dimes is "to help moms have full-term pregnancies
and research the problems that threaten the health of babies."
We
still have no idea how or why I developed preeclampsia and then
eclampsia but its wonderful to know that there are organizations out
there researching and fighting to prevent such causes of premature
birth.
If you're touched by our story and inspired to take action, please consider giving to any one of these organizations.
