Baby who received gifts from Dragonfly

Some stories from March 2014

From Ria/Christine: Besides our normal projects, in the last two weeks, we have helped a family with no insurance get crutches (yes, crutches), helped a now single mom get a job that doubled her salary and hours, helped a newly relocated family get a mortgage (huge thanks to Donna Thorman at Peoples First Savings Bank for going to the hospital to process the paperwork so they the family wouldn’t have to take time away from their child), delivered food and personal care items to a mom (at the hospital) with no resources, provided donated baby food to another mother, and helped a family through their child’s funeral.

From a Dragonfly Mom:

“P received these awesome gifts today from The Dragonfly Foundation this morning. He has been diagnosed with Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma. This little guy is only 6 months old. It is so heartwarming knowing that there are foundations like this to make his stay at Children’s Hospital a lot easier. Just to see him smile makes everything go away for that moment. Thank you to everyone at The Dragonfly Foundation for everything you do every day!”

From a Dragonfly Mom:

“Our son, C, has completed his chemo! We are so excited for him and can’t wait to move back home to Louisville, Ky. We have been so grateful for all the support from Dragonfly Foundation. We hope to actually participate in the events once our son is count recovered and we resume a somewhat normal life again!”
