Tina is a mom, wife and RN from Mantua, NJ. She lives with her husband Joe and their children Jenna (22) and Hudson (2), and is currently pregnant with a little girl, due in May.
She gave birth to her daughter Madelynn in December of 2019 after many rounds of fertility treatments. Madelynn was born at 38 weeks on December 13, 2019, at 7:57am weighing 9lbs 8oz and measuring 21½ inches. After birth, she was taken to the NICU, due to breathing difficulties. She was discharged after only a few days, but tragically died the first evening after coming home. Her death was diagnosed as SUIDS, and she is missed every day!
Her family is always sure to include her in everything they do, and they have spent countless hours doing charity work in her honor. They work closely with The Unforgotten Haven in Blackwood, NJ. Tina has also donated her time the TEARS Foundation and helps to organize the New Jersey chapters Rock and Walk.
In 2021, Tina and her family raised funds to donate a Cuddle Cot to a local South Jersey hospital, so that families who lose their babies are able to spend as much time with them as they want.
Thank you so much for sharing the story of Madelynn with us! You keep her memory alive by all of the special things you do to honor her, while helping others.
