Lucy has been eating much better and swallowing her food. Still a long way from taking everything orally, but she is definitely improving with tastes, swallowing and eating. Lucy loves to get messy and thinks carrots taste pretty good.
This is the story of Lucy, delivered 10 weeks premature, weighing only 2lbs. She was born with Down’s Syndrome and multiple congenital heart defects, spending 75 days in the NICU. She has underwent two open heart surgeries in August 2009 and June 2010 to repair her Atrioventricular (AV) Canal Defect, Ventricular septal defect, double outlet right ventricle, mitral valve and extra superior vena cava. We hope she touches your heart as much as she has touched ours.
