This January, we welcomed our first son, Harris, into the world. The day after we were discharged from Maine Medical Center, Harris was admitted to the NICU for treatment of high bilirubin levels at just 3 days old. From the moment we arrived, the care and support we received meant so much to our family. The doctor admitting Harris met us at the entrance, walked us in, and stayed with me as long as she could, and every nurse who cared for him showed such kindness and reassurance during our stay. We are incredibly grateful to the entire MMC NICU team for taking such wonderful care of our son. Harris is now 5 months old, happy, healthy, and growing every day thanks to this amazing team.
