Back home

We spent 35 days at the NICU, and came back home two weeks ago. The first two weeks of her life, baby girl was fighting for her life. She was born with a condition called pulmonary hypertension, where her fetal circulation does not switch to normal circulation like it should with the first breath. She was on a heart lung bypass machine for 5 days, and then a ventilator for 2 weeks.

She made it with all the prayers she received. By God's grace, she is home and doing well. Thank you so much for your prayers and wishes. It means a lot to us. Hope to write a detailed post soon.

    I am so sorry for what you have been through. I can't even imagine. Hoping you can now snuggle up your baby girl and begin enjoying this special time.
