Help Elizabeth DeWitt Run Boston Marathon for Boston Children’s Hospital, 6-Year-Old Arlington Girl

Elizabeth DeWitt is running the 2014 Boston Marathon for Boston Children’s Hospital’s “Miles for Miracles” fundraising campaign.

And her “Patirent Partner” is 6-year-old Mimi McNiff, of Arlington, who suffers from the life-threatening, chronic cardiac condition.

McNiff’s mother, Britt McNiff, has started a GoFundMe campaign for DeWitt’s run.

Britt McNiff and DeWitt grew up as neighbors in Madison, Wis., where McNiff babysat DeWitt and her sister for years. They were reunited when DeWitt saw McNiff’s Facebook post about Mimi, then 4, who was in the cardiac intensive care unit at Boston Children’s Hospital – as it turned out, DeWitt was doing her residency there at the time. DeWitt is now a Cardiac Fellow at the hospital.
