By the time Meghan Johnson first held her baby Ryan in the hospital, they both had gone through immeasurable lengths of survival against all odds. Johnson, a Mayfair resident in Northeast Philadelphia, was just over 25 weeks pregnant with her son Ryan in 2010 when tragedy first struck. The expecting mother was found unresponsive upstairs in her home one summer morning by her then fiancé. Johnson was blue from the neck up. 9-1-1 was quickly called.

I also ask them if their distributors are offering them a larger selection of American-made items than they did in the past. From what we all see, and from what we hear from consumers, the majority of food items are made in […]
