NICU Hospital for my journeyShady Grove Adventist NICU Rockville Maryland
My NICU Graduate's JourneyAndrew was born at 28 weeks and stayed in the NICU FOR 91 days. He came home on oxygen and apnea monitors and spent many days visiting specialists such as cardiologists, physical therapists and pulmonologists once he came home. We were so fortunate to have such an amazing NICU staff that not only took care of our baby but supported us as well.
What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?Andrew has made so much progress and is a healthy boy who loves to play cars and dinosaurs with his big brother. He sees a speech therapist and has just began to talk. His first word was last month "Pizza" we are so proud of our brave strong baby boy.
