My NICU Graduate's Journey
Madison was born at 23 4/7 weeks, weighed 460 grams and was 11 1/2 inches. Madison spent 141 days in Crouse NICU. She did OT and PT for a few years and loved playing with the therapists. Madison is now graduating from High School and going onto college for Environmental science. She'll be starting college at 17 and she is ready for her new adventure. Madison believes that it's important to be kind to everyone.

What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?
Everything!! It's been an amazing journey with many ups and downs but she got us to where we are today. She never gives up and she is so brave. Madison has overcome more in her 17 years than many do in a lifetime.
