Welcome to the world Zachary Dickstein!

Lauren ("LJ") and Eric Dickstein are excited to announce the arrival of their baby boy, Zachary David Dickstein!

Zach was born a few days before Thanksgiving - on Thursday, 11/16 - and according to LJ he is the "sweetest little guy" and "the best at giving cuddles!" Zach is also absolutely loved by his older sister, Lola :)

While LJ and her family are trying to focus on the positive parts of Zach's arrival, LJ did share with us that Zach was born with a large lesion on his face called a congenital melanocytic nevus. This type of lesion is extremely rare and is even more unusual to present on the face.

While there is still obviously a lot of information that LJ & her family need to learn about this condition, they are hoping in the immediate future to get Zach the best healthcare available and to start his care journey as soon as feasible.

Given LJ is a beloved colleague and friend to many, we would love to rally behind her family and help raise funds that will significantly support Zach during his care journey. LJ is aware that we are raising funds and is beyond grateful for any and all support.

Thank you in advance for sending best wishes to LJ, Eric, Lola ...and, of course, beautiful baby boy Zach :)
