Although you wouldn't know it now. She is a perfectly healthy 4 year old. With the sweetest, most amazing spirit of anyone you will ever meet. After what seemed to be a long fight of pre eclampsia (4 days) and an emotional ambulance ride from Memorial Regional Hospital to St Mary's Hospital. Fetal Medicinal Specialist, Dr. Troyer, decided Anastasia would be better off out then in. I had then had a
n emergency c-section that went far beyond "routine". Bogdan and I had no idea what to expect. I can not describe the relief and pure joy we felt when we heard her cry almost immediately after being born. It was faint and she sounded like a little lamb, but cried she did! She soared through the most amazing NICU in the entire world. Where her first mommies were the best nurse's our preemie girl could ask for. Anastasia came home on her 2 month birthday, she was on oxygen,but that didn't stop her ! Every woman has this perfect birth plan in mind. Then there are the babies born too early, some do amazing, like our Anastasia. Others don't make it, like the sweet innocent baby girl that was her neighbor in the NICU. We were lucky! Because of foundations like the March of Dimes, Anastasia and the Dunets' were blessed with another little girl Sophia, who made it to term and was born exactly when she was supposed to. We thank GOD everyday, for the 2 sweetest blessings a mom could ask for. Anastasia Ruby Dunets
