HI, GUYS.
HI.
YOU GUYS SOUND -- I CAN HEAR
YOU BEFORE WE HOOKED UP ON THE
INTERVIEW, IT SOUNDS LIKE YOU'RE
HAVING A LOT OF FUN.
[LAUGHS]
WE ARE.
THANK YOU FOR HAVING US TODAY.
I WAS DANCING AT YOUR
CONCERT AND EMBARRASSING MY
DAUGHTER A FEW MONTHS BACK.
THAT IS AMAZING.
SHE WAS APPALLED.
IT WAS FANTASTIC.
I LOVE IT.
AWWW.
SHE IS PRETTY EXCITED I'M
TALKING ABOUT YOU NOW.
LET'S START WITH WHY YOU WERE
INVOLVED WITH MARCH OF DIMES.
YES.
I STARTED TO GET INVOLVED
BECAUSE OF MY PERSONAL STORY.
I WAS BORN ONE POUND 14 OUNCES.
I WAS SO FRAGILE AND SO TINY.
I FIT INTO MY DAD'S PALM.
AND PREMATURE IS THE NUMBER ONE
KILLER OF BABIES HERE IN THE
U.S. SO OF COURSE WITH ALL OF
THAT, I HAD TO BECOME INVOLVED
WITH THE MARCH OF DIMES.
AND EVEN AFTER THAT, A TIME
WHEN BABIES ARE BORN
PREMATURELY, THEIR (INAUDIBLE)
RIGHT ON, RIGHT?
YES, DEFINITELY.
WELL, ONE CAN HAVE DIFFERENT
COMPLICATIONS WITH LEARNING.
WITH BREATHING.
HEARING LOSS.
SIGHT LOSS.
WE WANT TO HELP YOU SO DON'T BE
AFRAID TO ASK QUESTIONS AND GO
TO MARCHOFDIMES.ORG TO GET ALL
THE INFORMATION YOU NEED.
HOW HAS MARCH OF DIMES
HELPED YOU AND YOUR FAMILY?
WELL, I WAS BORN FIVE WEEKS
EARLY BECAUSE MY MOTHER HAD SOME
TROUBLE WITH HER AMNIOTIC FLUID
AND MARCH OF DIMES WAS THERE FOR
US.
SHE LOOKED UP INFORMATION ON THE
INTERNET AND FOUND THE SITE AND
MARCH OF DIMES HELPED ME A LOT.
I ASKED YOU EARLIER IF YOU
WERE HAVING A GOOD TIME.
HOW DO YOU ENJOY WORKING WITH
ALLEY?
OH, I LOVE HER! SHE IS SO
COOL.
AWWW.
I LOVE HER.
SHE IS SO SWEET.
SO WONDERFUL.
AND JUST SUCH A LOVELY YOUNG
MAN.

TOGETHER.
