Smallest premie released from hospital
This is the sort of story that easily resonates with Nancy and me, who are also parents of a premie: "'World's smallest baby' goes home." Like our Theresa, little Rumaisa was also born at 26 weeks. But whereas Theresa was 2 lb. 1 oz. at birth, Rumaisa was 8.6 oz. She is thus apparently the smallest surviving premature infant ever. Theresa was just over 10 weeks in hospital, while Rumaisa spent nearly six months there. May God grant her parents strength as they care for their child, who will still require "round-the-clock oxygen," among other things.
