James

Sweet Baby James was born at 29 weeks and 2 days after Mom suffered complications from placenta previa. He surprised everyone by topping the charts at 3lbs, 8.6 oz and 17 inches long. Fortunately his stay in the Special Care Nursery at Abington Hospital was uneventful and he was able to come home to a very excited big brother (and Mom and Dad) after 7 weeks.

Today James plays baseball, basketball, soccer and golf. He takes gymnastics and hip hop and loves skiing. James says that when he grows up he wants to be a paleontologist, a singer and an athlete. We think that after all that he has overcome anything is possible!

We are so thankful to all of the staff at Abington Hospital who made sure that Mom and baby both came home healthy, and to Today is a Good Day for the care package that brought us comfort and the listening sessions that helped us make friends that we are still close with today!
