Today we meet my friend Dana. I've invited her to tell the story of her son Barnett's traumatic pre-term birth and four month long NICU stay, so please be advised that it may be upsetting for some to hear. 

Her family's journey may have begun months before ours, but astonishingly--and unbeknownst to us--our children stayed just down the hall from each other at the same time in 2018. Our paths crossed again when we met for the first time in September 2019, and we have been so grateful to have them in our lives ever since. 

Thank you for joining me in celebrating NICU Awareness Month and all of the miracles that these little fighters make happen.
