Показать описание
Original airdate: 11/5/2019 | ittle Leonard Starcher has a lot to smile about.
Lenny, as the family calls him, was born at just 25 weeks and weighed just over a pound. He spent 134 days in St. Luke's neonatal unit.
It's been an emotional journey for his parents Iris and Justin.
"I just couldn't believe it. I never had even heard of a baby being born that small. I didn't know what to think I didn't know if he really did stand a chance or if you know they were just kind of trying to help me deal with it and stuff," Iris Starcher said.
Justin was what they call a micro preemie.
"A micro preemie is a baby that's less than 28 weeks and less than 1500 g. So Lenny certainly falls into that since he was 470 g at birth," Dr. Kim Costello said.
