Who ever it was that created the "March Madness" slogan, wow, was so not kidding! (yes, I know it has to do with basketball... final four, right?)

Spring has sprung. Close to 60 here in MN today (3-23) definately liking that, but the guard is not down yet, we still have one full week left in March! (please... no more snow! It confuses the robins! :D )

NILMDTS is continuing to bloom. New photographers, more attention from medical professionals, and families finding their way here for support and encouragement. I want to take a moment to thank our dad's for their willingness to share their thoughts here as well. This is awesome. Any and all insight from both parents is so helpful. Your insight is valuable. Thank you. I also want to thank our families who tell everyone they know about NILMDTS. It's unbelievable, how far we have come in our (soon to be) two short years of existance. We sincerely appreciate your support.

Just a note. I'm having a few issues getting all our Parent Coordinators posted in the Parent Coordinator thread. I know our Forum Administrator hero Kirk Kief will come to the aide to help resolve this. Thanks again, for being patient. Once I have your information posted, I will send you an email to the link and have you verify all your information is posted correctly.

Memorial ideas for Easter. Please feel free to share any ideas you have.
As always, donations to shelters or charities in your baby's name are welcome anytime of the year. If your family is doing something special in memory of your angel, we'd love to hear about it.

Take a moment.
For bereaved parents, Spring can be a difficult season to get through emotionally. The new growth of leaves on the trees, flowers, the light spring breezes. These things can trigger our grief. They say whispers are in the wind~ if you can, take a quiet moment. See if you can hear those whispers. You may be suprised at what you hear~ allow your heart to listen, not just your ears.

Sincerely,

Tammy Becker
NILMDTS Parent & Family Coordinator
