Kelly K. Damron is
the mother of fraternal twin girls conceived with the assistance of in
vitro fertilization (IVF). Her daughters were born at 30 weeks
gestation after her water broke. They spent 7 weeks in the Neonatal
Intensive Care Unit (NICU). One of her daughters had a life saving
surgery at only 5 weeks of age. Today both of her girls are healthy and
happy.
Kelly recognizes how lucky she is to be a mom and that
her girls
have no long-term effects of their prematurity. She lives in Phoenix,
Arizona, with her husband, Dave, and their daughters.
In addition to her book, Kelly shares her message through speaking events. Her three main topics are:
- Improve Patient Outcomes: Information to foster positive patient experiences
- Power of You: Enrich Work and Personal Relationships
- Integrate Real-World with Classroom Curriculum: Personal experiences enhance student learning
She is a regular guest lecturer for the NICU Discovery Nurse trainings at Banner Children's Hospital at Banner Desert Medical Center. She has spoken at March of Dimes events and has representated the March of Dimes on Channel 12 News (KPNX) and in public service announcements.
