My NICU Graduate's Journey
Ayanna was born at 25 weeks due to severe preeclampsia and HELLP syndrome she was born with no heart beat and down for 6 1/2 mins. She only weighed 1lb 4oz she was in the NICU for 86 days she had to come home still on oxygen and was on oxygen for 197 days!

What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?
Ayanna’s doctors had told us since she was born a stillborn that she would have a lot of issues and might be paralyzed! She over came everything that the doctors had told us to prepare ourselves for! Now she’s in pre-k and is THRIVING!!
