A request from my wife Erin to anyone that would like to participate or donate. Thanks


Hi Everyone,

One of my favorite people is my cousin, Robert. Over the past several years, I have been delighted that he finally found someone to share his life and that he was able to fulfill a life long dream - to have a child. On December 14, 2008, we welcomed Angela (Ela) Patricia Pirri into the world. Robert was born with Duane's syndrome and prior to her birth, it was discovered that Ela would have the same challenges. She was born with no thumbs, and no radial bone in either arm (Robert has no thumbs, and one radial bone missing from his left arm only). When she was born, we certainly did not let her birth defect cloud any of the joy and elation that we felt for this miraculous occassion....but daily, watching her grow....I am beginning to realize all of the challenges that she faces and will continue to face. Robert overcame many of his, with a lot less! And Ela, so far, has faced all of hers with a beautiful, happy smile In comparison to 42 years ago, the services that are available now, and the advances in surgery are incredible. I am sure that she will continue to thrive, and continue to smile.
So when I was asked to get together a team for the annual "March for Babies", I didn't have to think twice.
Please walk with me on Sunday, April 26th at 9:00AM at Colt State Park in Bristol and help the WPCC show their commitment to raising funds for those babies who need help to survive and thrive!

You can make a donation to celebrate those babies who are born healthy and to continue the hope that one day all babies will be born healthy!

CLICK this address to help- anything you can contribute is perfect blessing.
