Our Max was born on 22 November 2006, at only 24 weeks gestation (16 weeks premature) and weighing 630g. This is his story, and the difficult road he's travelled.
Help Save Tiny Lives...
Our attempts to raise money for the Neo-Natal Unit by selling second-hand baby clothes basically wasn't a success. Unfortunately, we only sold a few on EBAy, and for such small amounts that it just isn't worth it. So, we urge you all to consider making a donation to the Flinders Medical Centre Foundation (and ask specifically for the money to go to the NNU). Check out their site: http://www.flinders.sa.gov.au/fmcfoundation/ - and remember all donations are tax deductible.
Cuddle again – and another weigh. Now up to 680g – 60g put on in 7 days.
Photos: one without any tubes - not very attractive! (5 Dec); on pink sheets (7 Dec); On blue sheets (8 Dec); Mama's tentative cuddle (8 Dec); Closeup of Max with hat during a cuddle (11 Dec); closeup (bit fuzzy) of just how tiny his hands are (11 Dec).
