So chicka, Whereyabeen?

October has been a very busy month for me, including two trips out of the city, Torran's first field trip, The Linden Fund gala fundraiser, and Hallowe'en... not to mention Torran starting his speech therapy earlier in the month.



So, there will be a few catch up posts.





Firstly, thank you for your generous support of The Linden Fund during the fall gala event A Night to Dream. Bruce and I spent the evening in the company of wonderful family and friends, hospital NICU staff and preemie supporters celebrating the miraculous wee warriors that are our premature children. We wish we could have had all of our friends and preemie parents out with us - now that *would* be a huge party!

Preemie mother Jack Hourigan speaks of how she coped in the NICU by focusing on the details around her daughter Tess' hospitalization.





Much to my surprise, I was awarded The Linden Fund's Evan Award for outstanding volunteerism. In this photo, I make mention of Torran's premature birth and share the award with Bruce for his support of what I do.
