I didn't save the quotes because they were way too emotional, but I loved reading everyone's stories about their "miracle" children. Even the miracles who have gone on to brighter and better places.![]()
As I mentioned before, I work as a pharmacist in a pediatric intensive care unit. (I do what Roger does - only for children instead.) And we have a NICU next door as well as a very specialized surgical cardiac intensive care unit. Did I mention this is a free-standing children's hospital so they're all less than 21 years old? We're a very busy place - referral center for most of GA and some surrounding areas depending on the diagnosis.
Anyway, I really do love my job, but it can be depressing and challenging sometimes so it is so nice to hear the family sides of the stories. The "what happened after they went home?" Sometimes they come back to visit, but mostly we're left to wonder. So thanks again for showing me another reason why I do what I do!![]()
The NICU that Sarah was in (Atlantic City Medical Center) has a reunion party every once in awhile. We went to the first one when she was a little over a year old. I reslly don't know if they stopped doing this or if you only get invites (reminders) if you are younger. I'll have to look into it now.
