At 6 days old, Parker was diagnosed with a bowel perforation and had to be moved to another hospital. They spent their entire NICU stays in two places. After 96 days, Payton came home. After 134 days, Parker was finally able to come home too.
We saw so many babies while we were on our NICU rollercoaster. We had some good days, some not so good days and some bad days and all the while saw babies that were having much worse days. We saw babies go home ahead of us and some that were still there when we left that had been there as long as us.
We want all parents with NICU babies to know that they are not alone. Someone has gone through those same things and we understand how hard those days in the NICU are. We want to provide each of those families with a care package to let them know that they are not alone, they are thought of and they will be amazed at what their little ones can do.
