The Small Wonders Walk is a yearly event that supports the NICU. The walk usually takes place during the month of October. The day is full of fun for miracle families that participate including inflatables, face painting, and food. This previous year they raised over $50,000 for the NICU. In the middle of the event families will go out and walk on the trail set up to recognize all of the NICU graduates and to honor the memory of those who lost their fights in the NICU. This picture to the left is Ella just before the Small Wonders Walk.

The Morton High School Basketball team has put on a event for the Children's Hospital of Illinois, and each school in the district has a miracle family. A miracle family would be determined for each school by selecting a student or teacher's family that has had a miracle of their own. When my family was selected to represent the school Lettie Brown for the event, I was so excited! My mother has made a special video for the event. To watch please follow the link below!
