Absolutely amazing story


but I fear only one in thousands with such a good ending.

have you seen this pic of the tiny baby born at 22 weeks and weighing 10 ounces!?



More like a kitten or a rat than a baby.
She is very lucky to survive apparently well - most don't.

Re: Absolutely amazing story


I heard about her this morning on the news. She was very premature wasn't she? I heard that she was only as long as a ball-point pen when she was born.

Amazing!!!!!

Re: Absolutely amazing story


I saw that too and find it amazing that she survived, she was so tiny...

My twins were born at 33 weeks and they looked like tiny dolls ....... I just can't imagine anything as small as this little sweetheart
