My journey with my daughter Yanni began in December of 2001, when she was born. I had a standard scheduled Cesarean-section. Yanni is the third of five children and the two born before her were also c-sections. Surgery went wonderfully, and Yanni weighed in at a beautiful and healthy 7 pounds 8 ounces.  But right after birth, her blood sugar dropped and so did her oxygen saturation levels. Unfortunately, the doctors just couldn’t figure out why. They placed her in the NICU, where she stayed for 4 days until they believed she was stable, and sent us home. I couldn’t have been happier, because although she hit that initial speed bump, she seemed to have come through just fine. She ate very well, and behaved like any newborn would.

With an overall "normal" pregnancy we were excited to meet our new baby boy.....that was until we noticed something was wrong and no one was telling us what it was.

The next morning the pediatrician came in and told us that they were going to move Gage to the nearest children’s hospital, there was something wrong with our baby and they had no clue what it was. My heart sank, what could be wrong and what was going to happen to my precious baby? The next few days was like a whirlwind, it seemed like years before we knew what was going on, but at the same...
