My NICU Graduate's JourneyJayden spent a total of 200 days (both in the NICU an CNICU) in the hospital with heart and pulmonary defects. From surviving open heart surgery, meningitis, NEC, along with a Gtube and many many heart caths (to this day), he is my hero! He has graduated out of most therapies today and is a sassy, strong-willed 13 year old boy who keeps everyone on their toes!
What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?He has overcome everything he has been through with a strong will and knows what he wants!
