♥️♥️♥️

They say in heaven, mothers rock babies that aren’t theirs.

Tiny souls who left this world too soon…
Being held until their own mothers arrive.

I think about that a lot.

The idea that no baby is alone.
That somewhere beyond what we can see, someone is rocking them,
whispering love,
keeping them safe
until their mama gets there.

So if you get there before me…
please hold mine.

Rock them for me.
Tell them their mama loves them more than anything in this world.

And if I get there before you…
I promise I’ll be holding yours.

For more than 30 years, Mari-Kim Bunnell, MD, has cared for patients at Brigham and Women's Hospital OB/GYN. Over the past few years, she’s had the honor of doing so alongside her daughter, Megan Bunnell, MD, a current Maternal-Fetal Medicine fellow, as she trains to follow in her mother’s footsteps.

Mari-Kim and Megan recently worked the night shift together on Labor and Delivery, celebrating three generations of the same family, with the third arriving soon this month!

Please join UMass Memorial Medical Center in congratulating Danielle Ferguson, RN, who was honored with the Josie King Hero Award.

Danielle was nominated for her exceptional leadership, commitment to patient safety, and transformational work in assisting with the redesign of maternity triage.

Through her guidance, the team implemented the Maternal Fetal Triage Index (MFTI), a standardized, evidence-based tool that ensures consistent and accurate assessment of patient acuity.

Danielle's leadership strengthened communication, improved teamwork, and advanced the culture of safety, reflecting the very heart of the Josie King Hero Award: listening, speaking up, preventing harm, and inspiring positive change.

Her achievements were celebrated at a formal ribbon-cutting ceremony, marking a milestone in improving the patient experience and ensuring timely, high-quality care for expectant families.
