[quote=Anonymous]In best case scenario where baby goes home, If you want this 24 weeker to have a chance at a good life. Will need a very expensive NICU stay likely covered by Medicaid. ( single dad will be with the baby in the NICU so not working? Until at least term so 14 weeks or more) Multiple therapies as early interventions. Likely multiple specialists involved in lifelong care (likely Medicaid) Likely will need and IEP. And early preschool at 3 and 4yo with services like speech. Extra hearing and Vision screens. After discharge if the baby eats PO expensive preterm formula paid for by WICC. Expensive new vaccines like Beyfortus to prevent an expensive hospital stay from RSV (or death) which premies are at high risk of. So saying you are pro life and wanting to protect this kid and in the same breath saying you are pro cute to Medicaid, vaccine research, IEPs, WICC, SNAP makes no sense. It is not realistic to think that a single parent can give this kid the care needed and not need these services. This much money can save lives of many many existing people struggling to pay hospital bills to get treatments to survive.[/quote]
