NICU Hospital for my journeyPrisma Health Children's Hospital
My NICU Graduate's JourneyRiley spent 119 days in the NICU after being born more than 16 weeks early, weighing just 23 ounces. His birth took place at a hospital that was not equipped to care for him, and the staff fought tirelessly to keep him stable until an ambulance from Children's Hospital could arrive and transport him to a suitable NICU. Today, he embodies resilience and joy, thriving as a happy, healthy little boy.
What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?Riley is a fighter who has always triumphed over challenges.
