Glad that she is doing well. My wife and I have a similar story. We had twins on Sept 19, 2014. Maximus and Sophia Rose. They were born at 23 weeks and 1 day gestational. Max was born at 1.4lbs and Sophia at 850 grams. Sophia lived about 10 hours...like your girl...her lungs were too damaged from lack of fluid. Sophia sac had leaked twice out of my wife. Maximus went on to fight a long 141 days in the NICU. He survived through 4 surgeries and 2 staph infections and an appendix that became incarcerated in his right testicle. At 4 days old he made it through an emergency surgery due to his bowels perforating in three locations due to the endocine he had to take for the hole in his heart when he was born. He has gone on to thrive and now is home and growing. He is currently 17lbs and developmentally on pace. I was glad to hear your story in that miracles do happen...You just have to believe.Brian Duartenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16325837.post-17010437491857576732012-06-18T11:59:25.648-07:002012-06-18T11:59:25.648-07:00hey hun i know what u went through for the most pa...hey hun i know what u went through for the most part i just had my son at 23 and a half weeks early and weighed 1 lb 4 oz he is a micro preemie. so far he is doing ok but not able to eat due to a tube that goes from his bowels that is swelled. its been really hard knowing that he can eat yet or come home. he also gets a lil help with him to pee. he gets blood sometimes to and is on a ventilator. sometimes he can breath room air and sometimes he needs a lil help. my first son was born a preemie as well he was at 32 wks and weighed 4 lbs 5.3 oz. and now is a healthy lil boy weighing 24 lbs and is a year and a half. im sorry to hear about ur twin passing. i saw ur pic video and cried cause i know how it is to have preemies.put now i cant have anymore cause i can go through to having troubles with my pregnancy's.thank you so much for the strengh from ur videos. if u ever want to chat or have any questions u can contact me at whiskeygirl6869@yahoo.com or on facebook. u can use my email address to find me or my name.thanks nikki johnsonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16325837.post-29316712551231482192012-03-09T03:52:26.312-08:002012-03-09T03:52:26.312-08:00Hi, I just found your blog and look forward to rea...Hi, I just found your blog and look forward to reading your entire story. First of all, congratulations on your Kaitlyn turning 6. Our miracles were born at 25+ weeks and spent 100+ days in the NICU and I have just started to chronicle our story. What stands out in your post is that it appears that you confidently blog about Kaitlyn as a twin. I have struggled greatly over what I should refer to my triplet survivors as because it always ends up confusing people that I meet. It ends up a much simpler conversation when I introduce our two triplets as twins. When I do introduce them as "our two triplets", the conversation depending on the disposition of the person on the other end of the conversation either abruptly stops or turns into a recantation of their life story. <br /><br />Do you or anyone else have thoughts on the matter?rgard99https://www.blogger.com/profile/08260886138497264743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16325837.post-83570987636303445602012-02-29T14:12:39.957-08:002012-02-29T14:12:39.957-08:00benta wheeler-my little mini is 6, he is mess, but...benta wheeler-my little mini is 6, he is mess, but i love him.Maya M Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04502407586101983361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16325837.post-81966416356137462442011-12-19T22:42:52.523-08:002011-12-19T22:42:52.523-08:00Happy Birthday!

My baby Wendy was born at 33 weeks, and while that isn't as early as some preemies, she's also has a chromosome abnormality, one that no doctor has ever seen before. She's definitely a miracle. Water broke at 29 weeks and I spent almost 5 weeks in the hospital before I had her. I've been keeping a blog too. :) It's a great way to share/vent/get support. I hope your family is doing well.

I must admit that I admire your honesty and bravery and your dedication to your children and the challenges you faced with raising them. I love reading all your updates on them and am looking forward to reading many more. RIP to your beautiful angel daughter Corinne. She has touched the heart of many who have read her story.
