In part two this story, Kyla and I talk about life in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) (her experience) and Pediatric Intensive Care Unit PICU (my experience). Kyla says that that time felt like "forever and the same day, over and over"  and I can't think of a better way to say it. Her baby boy, Conner, is now 6 months old and greets each new day with the a gummy smile and shining eyes. Life isn't all rainbows and butterflies, but Kyla and her family know what true gratitude feels like, deep down in their bones.   LIFTS online resource guide: https://hmhb-lifts.org  Specific services relevant to this episode (found on LIFTS.org)Statewide Support Groups Search " early intervention services" on LIFTS online resource guide: https://hmhb-lifts.org Search "counselors" on LIFTS online resource guide: https://hmhb-lifts.org Hand to Hold - NICU Babies, Parent Support (website) Hand to Hold (podcast)For statewide resources please visit the Linking Infants and Families to Supports athttps://hmhb-lifts.org/
