Every penny makes a difference

Hi Everyone:
As many of you know, our second set of twins have been in and out of the hospital ever since they were born. Born at 31 3/7 weeks, both kids were rushed to the NICU where they spent a great deal of time. Ever since then, Cooper has been in for a left hernia repair and both kids now have Craniosynostosis. They will each take there turn at Children's hospital of Wisconsin here in the next few months as they both have their Craniosynostosis fixed. I know many of you believe in donating money to different organizations around the world, but for me and my family, we are trying to help Children's hospital of Wisconsin. If it were not for them, my kids most likely would not have made it after birth. The NICU is a great place and for you that have not experienced it, count your blessing. For you that have been there, you know what miracles they can perform..no less, saving your children! My family is doing a fundraiser for the NICU. The Brigg's and Al's run /walk is a fundraiser for The NICU, PICU, and a few other departments within Children's. If anyone would be interested in helping, please see our fundraising page, www.firstgiving.com/colekids.

Since I am here, I am also going to post a link for the Neurosurgery Dept. Dr. Bruce Kaufman, who is Neurosurgeon with Children's, partners with our Neurologist - Dr. Muszynski, is teaming up with a pilot from Midwest Airlines and they are also doing a fundraiser. Please take a moment to check it out. http://www.firstgiving.com/romp

Please, If you feel you can spare a few dollars, even five dollars, that would be great.
Please pass this blog onto anyone else whom you might think would be interested in donating.

Thanks much.
