A NICU STORY | THOUGHTS FROM MOM

"Parker Don born 7/29/14 at 33 weeks. Upon arrival he was 5lbs. 2oz. and 17.25 in. long! He surprised us with his early entrance but has been a fighter from the start and has overcome the challenges he was facing with being a preemie!

Last year when participating in the Little Monsters 5K I never thought I would be the parent to a child in the NICU; however, life always throws us surprises! Parker was stubborn and decided to make his arrival early to join us! I will always say he was jealous of the kisses his daddy was getting because my water broke as I was giving my husband a kiss goodbye when he was leaving for work.

Parker spent a week and a half in NICU and I cannot express how amazing the staff was at the College Station Medical Center NICU. I was blessed to be able to have a boarding room while Parker was a patient to allow me to breastfeed and pump to supply him with the best nutrients possible. I could not have asked for a better delivery, hospital stay, or new parent experience despite our surprise visit and stay in NICU."
