These ABC triplets were born 9/28/04, 12 wks early. Avery weighed in at 2 lbs 9 oz., Cora 2 lbs 1 oz., and little Brock 1 lb 11 oz.. The girls each had several preemie issues, but they faired quite well. Brock however had the toughest time. He suffered a grade 4 brain hemmorage on the left side, and a grade 3 on the right. He had seizures, developed hydrocephalus, required heart surgery, and had an IV line infiltrate which led to necrosis (loss) of his left hand fingertips,not to mention numerous other issues. He also has been diagnosed with optic nerve atrophy in which he has virtually no vision except some light perception.
All 3 are miracles in and of themselves, yet Brock overcame a 1% chance of making it to be with his sisters today! Brock proved that doctors only know what the textbooks tell them and my little man didn't read the books! He continues to amaze us with his abilities and charm us with his personality.
We are so blessed to have our 3 little ones and hope and pray for continued progress and good health.
Happy Easter! Thanks for all of the pictures, Peg. They are adorable. Where is the annual bunny ears picture? I would imagine they have REALLY outgrown those ears by now. I still look at their first Easter pictures and smile. My how they have grown and become even more precious!
The best picture of all, however, is that big kitchen chair picture. Our boy sure is getting stronger.
I love you guys and I'm sending (((Hugs))) and kisses (smooches for Avery).
