My NICU Graduate's Journey
Isack was born at 23 weeks and 3 days weighing 1lb 6oz he was in the NICU for 117 days. He had multiple problems one major one being he had 2 brain bleeds a grade 3 and grade 4, we were told by doctors he would most likely never walk and with only 20% chance of survival but against all odds he made it. Isack just turned 8 years old in April he can most definitely walk, run. He is a happy, creative, outgoing, kind hearted child, and absolutely loves to talk and animals any and all kind of animals. Isack has always fought with all his might, he truly is our little miracle!

What makes you proud of your NICU graduate?
The fact that he has overcome so much and always with a smile even to this day he keeps smiling is what makes me most proud of him the determination and willpower. He has to be better and try his best is something I will forever look up too.
