ReplyDeleteI loved the clip, though it bought back tough memories. My twin nephews were born at 25 weeks, everyday could have been their last for what seem like so long. My little fingernail was the size of their hand, and they were were kind of transparent. But hey, they have celebrated their fourth birthday :)
The staff at the wards do a tremendous job.
