That potential could be the person who cures aids, finds a way to make a peaceful world or saves your life. Wouldn't it be a shame to waste such a gift just because there is a possibility that their life may be hard? just john I agree I don't know what is in store for Perry Lee but I know he is a miracle and he has a purpose on this ear

they might as well try and help the baby..."letting them die" is the same as abandoning them.... By the way...anyone know what causes premature birth?...I haven't done the research, I never had the need to...perhaps we should work on preventing that if possible. Zoologist03 You said “letting them die" is the same as abandoning the

MsLadyDeath would have cheered them on. ParaTed2k To tell you the truth from everything I have read about MsLadyDeath. She could be one of my 6 daughters her interests are near to identical to Jennifer and Barbara. It sounds to me like she is truly interested in understanding the miss conceptions about Micro-Preemie.

As a parent, you create the life, you are responsible for the decisions for that child, as long as you are mentally capable of making "life or death" decisions. Duh folks. Dan Even some parents don't deserve that right. While Perry Lee was in the NICU a set of preemie twins were born. Their parents like Jennifer stayed at Ronald McDonald House one of the twins was normal the other had a few problems like he had to have a shunt to drain the water off his brain but with time an

I was born very premature, roughly 2 pounds, and at the far end of the premature line. I survived, why not give them a chance to live. SilentPoet I am sorry guys but 2lbs is a micro preemie Perry Lee hovered around 2lbs for months. If you made it you are a miracle even a 2 pounder only has a one in 4 chance of surviving. I saw man

Msladydeath would just as soon see Perry Lee dead. ParaTed2k You and not Msladydeath can really say what you would do, think, or say about this subject until you have walked in those shoes. None of us can no what something feels like until we have lived it ourselves. When people run their mouths about things they don’t understand they ar

"yet would seek to force painful and unwanted care on micro-preemies." I would seek for the parents and legal guardians to make the choice with the help of doctors rather then taking that right away from them and leaving in solely in the hands of doctors. Dan As far as I have seen the choice is the parents with the doctor’s advice

It is the same with micropremature births isn't it? They keep the hydrated, but don't feed them, until they drift into the afterlife. Dan No they do not do that Perry Lee could not eat at first they put lipids through the IV. Then as he got to where his stomach could handle food sources they fed him through a feeding tube they even put

Sarafina I have felt that pain my daughter lost one at 19 weeks the year before she got pregnant for Perry Lee. Spending over 5 months in the NICU with Perry Lee we saw so many families suffer that terrible pain that is indescribable if you have never lived through it. Jennifer didn’t get to even hold Perry Lee until he was 3 months old after 2min. he stopped breathing and turned blue the doctors and nurses got him up and breathing again. That happened so many times while he was there in the NIC

I dont' know of any success stories either, I'd love to hear them, I'd love to be proven wrong, I can give you 2 success stories! (1,) My niece went through 5 doctors before she found one that was willing to deliver her son. Because the amniocenteses test said he would be so severely brain damaged that the doctors were not willing to d
