Amazing!
My friend had her wee boy at 24 weeks, he's 9 months old now and when I saw him yesterday I didn't recognise him, he's huge!

mar - aid is how it's supposed to be pronounced.
Such a nice story, brought a tear to my eye.
eta: After saying it about 50 times in my head, Ma - raid might be a better pronounciation

Its amazing aye.
We have had heaps of ex 23/24weekers thru lately. It's amazing what they have been through, some are as small as 450gms when born. I love looking after these ones - they have heaps of attitude and are little fighters.

Awwww, that had me in tears! I never realised just how much parents of preemies go through - I mean, I still don't really because how can you if you haven't been there, but huge hugs to those of you who've been there - you're amazing!
