My NICU Graduate's JourneyKenny was in the NICU for 3 1/2 months. He was born at 25wks and weighed only 2lb 3oz. He had heart surgery at 8 days old and suffered heart issues until about age 6 which in turn caused problem with regulating his blood pressure. He is a Junior in High School now and after some additional medical issues the past few years, he is on the mend and looking forward to college.
What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?Through everything Kenny has always been a happy child with so much love to give. He is our miracle child and has brought so much love and light into the lives of all he has touched.
