Are you doing anything for PAM/PAD?

As we come up on November, I was wondering, are you doing anything for Prematurity Awareness Month/Day?  I have made a couple of donations to the MOD, but I was thinking of something on a bigger scale.  Any ideas?

I was thinking, maybe if I did something to help awareness, we wouldn't get the comments we all would like to ban!

I know you are in Michigan, but our local Tampa Preemie Mom's group is hosting baby showers at each of the NICU's here in Tampa in November.  We are collecting donations for clothing, bathtubs, bath supplies, diapers, wipes, washcloths, and anything else that is "baby shower related."  If you are interested, we would LOVE any help we can get.  New Wife sent a whole box of clothes (I am SO GRATEFUL for!!) and I posted about this yesterday and got some offers of help here too.  We are wanting to do this, because a baby shower is just a simple thing that can make you feel normal, even in a completely abnormal situation.  Our hope is to leave these mom's feeling better about the whole experience and knowing there are so many others out there who have been there and are there to support!
