Click on the slideshow below to learn more about Marissa's story and to see all the places around the region where the bunny wound up.

Thank you, Yankee Magazine, for bringing this issue to the fore. Such a heavy burden for someone so defenseless, and Mike and the rest of the family have been incredible in working through everything involved with infantile spasms, including medical bills and treatments, insurance, and raising a child under these conditions. That Mike's family has also come up with the traveling bunny to raise awareness, on top of every other concern is simply amazing, and my hat's off to Yankee Magazine for carrying this torch forward
