Yes, she is a miracle. I’ve never heard a success story that early. My friend last year lost twins and they were close to 20 weeks when the leaking started. She still has not had success yet getting pregnant again. She tried many time before the twins and is still not giving up but in such pain.
How exciting that soon you will be bringing your little kangaroo baby home. Hug and kiss her every day. I’m so happy for you. Prayers heavenward for a long and healthy life for her.
The doctors and nurses in Iowa City would sometimes sneak in and stare at Dani. Most said that they would never expect this to happen.
My wife had a full rupture of membranes, but the placenta formed a little pocket around Dani’s face. She always had a little liquid there.
Dani will be home in three weeks or so, without oxygen, and only minor complications (she has a heart murmur, but I did, and my great grandfather had one till his 90’s). We have a ways to go, but the last sixty days have been very humbling.
