My NICU Graduate's Journey
Piper stopped growing at 21 weeks, and was born at 27 weeks. She was 1lb 5oz. She was diagnosed with necrotizing enterocolitis at day 31, and had to have life saving surgery. She spent 225 days total in the NICU. She has been a true fighter since day one!

What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?
Piper is the most resilient little girl. She has had limits set on her due to her conditions, and keeps pushing through those limits one by one. She has so much joy and shares that with everyone she meets.
