My NICU Graduate's JourneyAdore’s journey started August 31,2023 she was born at 28 weeks and 2 days. She stayed in the hospital for a total of 86 days. She was a fighter through and through, from being diagnosed with CMV just weeks before she was planned to graduate to pushing through and graduating from the NICU only 4 days after her due date.
What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?What makes me proud of my NICU graduate is how strong she was throughout the whole process. Her being strong made me strong and gave me the strength to be beside her and fight just like she was.
