Evelyn was born (27.11.19) at 25+3 weighing only 440g, that’s not even 1lb. She had a traumatic start in life, contracted sepsis twice, ROP, Chronic Lung Disease, kidney failure, multiple blood and platelet transfusions. After being ventilated for 2 months she moved slowly through the NICU, our due date came and went and after 6 long months in the NICU we were discharged home on oxygen and with a feeding tube. Our miracle arrived home 1 year ago today (18.05.21) is almost 18 months old and astounds us regularly as to what she has achieved. We’re so grateful for the work the medical team at UHCW did for her and us we can never repay them.
