in Head and Neck Cancer #1

So our sweet baby girl arrived a little earlier than expected yesterday. My water broke yesterday morning at 2:30 am & she was born at 4:15pm. She was only 36 weeks & 5 days which is preterm so she is being monitored in the NICU until her breathing is under control. She was a very healthy weight of 6lb 10 oz & has a head full of dark hair. I will post a picture when we get home & get settled but we are so thankful for our special little one & feel so blessed to be able to bring her into this world after struggling through cancer treatment last year.

I hope everyone has a very happy Thanksgiving!!
