This is Samuel. He was born on February 11th at 27 weeks gestation. That’s 13 weeks too soon.
Samuel entered the world weighing 1 pound, 7 ounces. That’s 1 ounce more than the bottle of Kiwi Strawberry flavored VitaRain sitting on my desk right now. Wow.
Samuel, who is still in the NICU, is Kmart’s Ambassador baby. He’s who they’re walking for this year. And why they’re raising money to help us reach the day when no baby will be born too soon–or weighing the same as a bottle of vitamin enhanced water.
We’re rooting for you, too, Samuel.
