Loving Support

We've received many cards, emails, and phone calls from friends and family all over the country. It comforts us to know how much Aerin is loved. Many have asked about sending flowers or balloons to the hospital for Aerin. While we very much appreciate the sentiment, we would prefer for people to make a donation in Aerin's name to the March of Dimes.

We would also love for everyone who can to donate blood in honor of Aerin. She has already had 6 transfusions in her little life and she wouldn't be here without them. They've set aside 2 units of blood for her, in addition to the unit that Andrew donated to her. That's a very sobering amount. You really do give the gift of life when you donate blood. Andrew and I can never thank Aerin's donors enough.

We do understand if you really want to send something to Aerin. Here is where she'll be:

Main Hospital - 7th Floor
Virginia Commonwealth University Medical Center
1250 E. Marshall Street
Richmond, VA 23298
(804) 828-9602
