My NICU Graduate's Journey
My NICU graduates were born July 21, 2008 on mine and my husband's 7th wedding anniversary. They stayed in the NICU for 8, 9 and 14 days. Now 17 years later, they are graduating high school. One is going to college to be a teacher, ones going military and the other is going into workforce. So proud of my NICU babies.

What makes you proud of your NICU graduate?
Everything. They have overcome so much.
