Carlene Maxie of Sachse knew all along she wanted to help people after she retired from 30 years as a logistics specialist in the Navy.
Maxie thought she would take it easy for about a year and then start looking for things to do.
The cuddler program allows volunteers to spend quality time with babies in the NICU.
"Those babies give me life," said Maxie, who takes an evening shift on Sundays to volunteer as a cuddler.
Medical City Plano currently has 17 cuddlers taking shifts to cuddle with the babies. Sonja Castillo is the manager of the Neonatal ICU and she says there are enough studies to prove the value of a warm touch for babies.
Castillo says it is impossible for families to stay with their babies all the time, so having the volunteers is a valuable resource.
