I was in the Corps with a dude who was 6'7" and looked like he could bench a buick. He was born really early and given a 10% chance of survival. One of the kindest people I've ever known, and a very devout Christian.
My youngest was born 2 months early with his intestines outside of his body and missing half of his small intestine. Given less than a 10% chance of survival, he spent 4 1/2 months in the NICU and was sent home "to meet the family". They gave him less than a year to live. He is now 18 years old and we are having a party this weekend to celebrate his HS graduation. God answers prayers. Never give up. (And besides needing to take some vitamin supplements, he lives a totally normal life).
That’s awesome, quite the journey you went on with him. I bet it’s awesome to see him making the most of life now. Our food is so crappy now vitamin supplements are pretty normal too!
It was a journey for sure. But when I see little guys like Theodore up there, it reminds me of how far we've come. Congrats to Mind_the_attitude and his wife. Keep praying! We are all praying with you.

Which vitamin supplements?
Vitamin D, zinc, folic acid, iron and I give him a B-12 shot twice a month.
OP'S story and yours just made my day! Amen!

Tyson Fury was born 3 months early weighing 1 pound and he’s now the heavyweight champ, you never know what a little one is capable of.
He’s a devout Christian too. https://youtube.com/shorts/L2_oghGESuI?feature=share
