My NICU Graduate's Journey
My son was due in December but came in October. He started off doing very well and meeting all the milestones to get released from NICU. Then he caught the flu. The top of his lung collapsed and they didn't think he was going to make it through the weekend. My miracle baby boy not only made it but he surprised the doctors and nurses with how fast he recovered. Now he's 9 years old and doing great.

What makes you proud of your NICU graduate?
My NICU graduate is an honor roll student. He makes me proud everyday because he's Autistic but he continues to defy every obstacle put in front of him.
