My NICU Graduate's JourneyJosephine was born at 33 weeks via emergency C-Section. At 4 pounds 11oz she was the smallest human we’d ever seen. She had apnea, jaundice and feeding problems. She spent a total of 45 days in the NICU.
What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?She’s still a fighter with neutropenia, as well as her immune system, getting IVIG infusions for hypogammaglobulinemia. She is strong willed and will accomplish great things in her life.
