My NICU Graduate's Journey
Colin spent 72 long days in the NICU. He showed in the beginning that he was coming on his own time and wasn’t waiting the 9 months. He stepped to his own beat then. He wore a CPAP for a bit, was jaundiced, had to get a central line in, had 2 hernia repairs.

What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?
I am proud of Colin for how far he has come. He has such a fun loving and caring spirit. He can make anyone laugh and doesn’t take life too serious. To this day you would not know that he was born 14 weeks early. I am so thankful.
