Story
Name
Mackenzie Shaw
Injury/Illness
Premature Birth
We are a family of 5, Dad Matt, Mom Mandi, Big Sisters Megan (8) and Mia (3). Mackenzie is our 3rd preemie, coming at 30 weeks gestation. Megan was born at 32 weeks, and Mia at 34. We are so blessed by all our girls, and couldn't be more excited for Mackenzie! The doctors advised that we should plan on her being in the NICU for 6-8 weeks. We live 2 hours from the hospital, so our family is split between home and the NICU. Mom will be out of work while caring for Mackenzie. We are fortunate to be surrounded by an amazing community, and any help is greatly appreciated! -Mackenzie's Family
