Hi all. Meet our miracle baby Luke. Born 6 months and 1 week in, due to pregnancy complications. Born 6/20/07 at 1 lb & 7 oz - 12 inches long. Went home on 10/2/07 at 5 lbs & 8 oz - 17 inches long. Thanks to the grace of God, prayers from believers in God O Mighty & the skills of doctors and nurses, he survived birth [with cord in two knots and wrapped around neck three times], beat Chronic Lung Disease & Retinopathy of Prematurity (eye disease]. Had 3 operations, liver failure & recovery [no known cause] and a long 3 ½ month stay in two different hospitals. Today, Luke is doing great!!
