My NICU Graduate's Journey
Wild was born at 29+5 due to preeclampsia. He weighed 3 pounds 8 oz and had a chest tube placed his first night due to pneumothorax. He spent 43 days in the NICU and then returned to Peds for a week after spending a weekend at home due to hypothermia.

What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?
Wild has the biggest heart. He is loving and a fierce defender of his people. He is smart, kind, and always ready to try something new. He will be turning 5 soon and is so excited to welcome his baby brother home this month!
