My NICU Graduate's Journey
Mom went into labor like normal but the labor wasn't progressing so we had an emergency C-section due to fetal distress. Jett went into the NICU with a meconium aspiration and having a hard time breathing on his own. He progressed well in the NICU with help and care from his amazing doctors and nurses. After a nervewracking and scary few days for his first time parents; he was able to gain strength and graduate from the NICU after 15 days!

What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?
Jett is an amazing kid. He is 2.5 years old and loves to be outside. His current love is searching for all kinds of bugs and digging for worms in the garden. He is so smart and loves learning new things at his weekly storytime at the library. He loves his family and our family dog Polaris! We can't wait to see how he will learn as he grows up, we love you!
