I am walking for my niece, Ellery Case and all babies born prematurely who have to fight to survive. Ellery was born September 30, 2008, 7 weeks early due to Hydrops, Pleural effusions and Chylothorax. She was not expected to survive, due to (Hydrops) and tons of fluid around her heart and lungs. She was in the NICU for 28 days. The March of Dimes saved my niece's life!
Ellery received a clean bill of health on February 12, 2009 from her Chylothorax (a leak in her lymphatic system which caused fluid to build up in her chest cavity). She was on a special formula, diuretics, oxygen and high flow nasal cannula. She has come a LONG way - she IS a Miracle Baby!!
Please visit Ellery's CaringBridge website for her progress at:
