Fighting for Firsts

My husband and I experienced every emotion as we drove home from the hospital with our first baby, Cecilia. We were tired, anxious, and scared (we were new parents after all!), but we were mostly filled with love, excitement, and hope for the future of our family. I want others to have this same hope for the future of their families. As a nurse practitioner who cares for vulnerable populations, I have seen so many of our neighbors struggle to find hope because they have nowhere to turn for support when they need it most. As a community, we must be that support for those in need. Ensuring our moms, children, and families are healthy and happy is one of the best ways to create a vibrant community for all of us to enjoy together. Please join me in my fight for firsts!
