My NICU Graduate's Journey
Hadley came into the world in her own special way♡ Born at 24 weeks as an en caul "mermaid". Her biggest feat were her preemie lungs. Hadley was in the NICU for 110 days. #PreemieStrong After the NICU Hadley had many challenges that she overcame, including coming home on oxygen, wearing a helmet, wearing braces, and using a walker. Hadley is now a thriving, three year old!

What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?
Hadley makes us proud every day! She's always learning something new, and is the happiest and most loving little girl♡
