Silvia's Birthday Fundraiser for John Muir NICU

For my birthday this year, I would like to give back to a place that gave my family so much. Bryan and I will match any donations up to $500 made to John Muir's Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

The NICU is the reason Felix is here today and because of that, I will be forever grateful. There were so many little things that make the NICU a special place. Their doctors, nurses, respiratory therapists, and numerous staffers acted as quasi-therapists for me when I was in a very dark place, they helped keep me fed, they celebrated the little things as well as the big things, and most importantly, they held Felix, talked to him, laughed with him, played music, dressed him, and gave him love when we weren't around. None of that was expected of them but made those days more bearable.

Thank you in advance for your support of John Muir's NICU. If you can afford it, you should know that your donation helps make a scary time seem just a little bit brighter.
