NICU Hospital for my journeyErlanger
My NICU Graduate's JourneySummer had a cyst on her colon which caused her to not gain weight. A surgery four days after she was born to fix it. After 3 weeks they allowed my baby to come home.
What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?She almost didn’t make it. I was advised to terminate the pregnancy but I knew that was not the answer. She is here and she is the greatest baby ever.
