I'm sure you've heard lots of preemie stories, so I won't bore you with details, but our grand-daughter was a 2 lb. 4 oz. preemie. At 19 months she is a heavy little sweetie....talking, running, playing, using sign language (her mom read that it helps with speech and language), spoiling her baby sister and is an absolute treasure. Take courage and may God bless your family. I pray that he goes home soon.
And by the way, the quilt is beautiful! Continue to keep us posted of his progress....a pic of him on grannies quilt would do nicely. :-)
