[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had a preemie. He weighed 3lb, 14oz, at 32 weeks. He had a global developmental delay, needed extensive physical, occupational, feeding and speech therapy, has anaphylactic allergies to certain foods, ADHD and autism. All these issues increase with premature birth and low birth weight. Just because some very lucky babies survive extremely premature births and low birth weights, doesn't mean they all survive; and the littlest, most fragile ones NEVER survive without lifelong issues. Chance will have lifelong issues if he survives. The grandmother isn't lying. The hospital staff is not telling her what this baby will have to go through. The hospital staff would never lay it all out for new parents/grandparents! All they're telling her is that right now he's alive, and has a fighting chance of surviving tomorrow. Nothing beyond that. You have to interpret these things correctly, PPs. [/quote] Citation needed for your diagnosis for a baby you have never laid eyes on? Are you his doctor? Are you a preemie doctor? My son was born premature and is normal. [/quote]
