Day 5: How Will inspired Julie to invest in her community

Several of us were together and praying for sweet Will when someone mentioned that I was one that could understand a bit more of what my nephew, Taylor, & his wife, Courtney, were going through as my daughter was born premature with a severe birth defect and lived in the NICU for quite some time. I so admire their faith and commitment to being with Will around the clock. That time was precious. It reminds me how many babies in the NICU and PICU never have anyone visit or someone to hold them. Many children are brought to hospitals out of state that can best care for them, and it is so hard on the families. It has inspired me to start volunteering again at our local hospital and to donate more to the Ronald McDonald house.  McDonalds started these homes to help families have a place to stay while their children are in the hospital.  The need is great and the nurses will tell you that these precious angels do better when they have that personal human touch.  God bless you!  Love, Aunt Julie
