My NICU Graduate's Journey
He was born at 26 weeks in December 19 and had to stay in the NICU for 5 months. He had ROP and had to be flown to cleveland for surgery to remove his lens at 3 months old. He came home with a tube but only had it for 6 months. We have done all the therapies and he is now in preschool and diagnosed with Autism.

What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?
How far he has come and all the obstacles he had to go through.
