Meet the Grieco Family

Steven and Kelly Grieco have three, "million dollar, miracle babies". Their first is four-year-old Vinny who was born at 31 weeks, weighing 3 pounds, 7 ounces. Vinny battled feeding issues and was dubbed the “silent spitter” by his Newborn Intensive Care Unit (NICU) staff. Vinny was able to go home after 5 weeks and is now a happy pre-schooler with no signs of his early struggles. Steven and Kelly’s second and third "million dollar, miracle babies" are twins Gabby and Izzy, who were born at 25 weeks. Gabby weighed 1 pound, 9 ounces and Izzy weighed 1 pound, 8 ounces. at birth. They were in the NICU for 105 and 99 days respectively, for issues such as reflux, feeding challenges, apnea episodes, heart conditions and numerous other problems. Today, Gabby and Izzy are doing well and also have few signs of their early struggles.
