Lilianna is now a happy and healthy 4 year old!!

Grady baby Luca was born at just 25 weeks and 4 days at Magee Women's Hospital in Pittsburgh, weighing only 2 pounds 4 ounces and measuring 14.5 inches long. He spent 150 days in the NICU before finally coming home on June 23rd, 2025.

Today, Luca is 19 months old and 18 pounds. He's just learning to walk and he's a very happy little boy who loves to smile and clap. He loves playing with cars and Ms Rachel. He has had some health concerns since coming out of the NICU that we are working on he is primarily fed by G-tube with plenty of room to grow and is learning to eat safely. We are so proud of how far he's come.

Where are they now?!?!

Grady baby Axton, was a part of Grady's Decision back in 2019! We live in Franklin, PA. My water broke at 28 weeks and I was driven to UPMC Hamot in Erie, PA. Luckily rather than coming at that time, I stayed inpatient there for almost 4 weeks and Axton was born just shy of 32 weeks gestation. He only weighed 4 lbs 13 oz and remained in the NICU for 4 weeks.

Axton is now 7 years old and just started 2nd grade. He is a little smaller than his classmates, but he is a bright, curious, and thoughtful little man! Even his sister, whom was 3 at the time, was able to come visit him. And since then we've added twin brothers! Axton has a pet snake and loves Sonic the Hedgehog and monster trucks!

Where are they now?!?!

Emmett was born at 30 weeks and 2 days due to a spontaneous uterine rupture. He weighed 3lbs 1oz when he was born. He had a very rough delivery- but fought hard and still continues to be so tough. He was in the NICU for 62 days learning to breathe, stay warm, and eat on his own. He just turned one, and he’s the happiest, easy going little guy. He is truly our miracle boy and we are so thankful Grady’s Decision exists. No one can remotely relate to your situation unless they’ve lived it so being connected with other families who have suffered through the NICU and understand where you’re coming from makes the entire experience a little easier.

Grady’s prayer warriors, we need all your prayers and positive thoughts for baby Asa! 🙏

Asa’s mom shares: “My husband and I discovered that our baby, Asa, had Down syndrome at 12 weeks pregnant. We were completely at peace with his diagnosis and so ready to embrace him and provide him all the care he would need. After an extensive anatomy sono at 19 weeks, the doctors discovered a possible bladder obstruction and back flow into the kidneys that had likely caused tremendous damage. We were referred to Cleveland MFM. His amniotic fluid was still normal at that point. By 24 weeks they discovered he had little to no amniotic fluid left. I received an amnioinfusion at 24 weeks and 5 days in hopes to give him a chance for his lungs to develop. Unfortunately at 25 weeks, I began contracting throughout the day. I went to the hospital twice that day and was continually reassured that it was just uterine cramping. Later that night, the “cramping” got far more intense so we made the decision to drive the hour and a half to Cleveland. Within ten minutes of arrival, Asa was born. We ask for prayers as he has kidney damage, pulmonary hypertension, a bladder obstruction, a tracheoesophageal fistula and a very long road ahead. We are believing for a miracle for our little fighter!!! He has 5 big siblings at home that so desperately want their baby brother to make it home.” 🩵

Where are they now!?!?

Grady baby Thomas was born in May 2018. He spent a combined 45 days in UPMC and Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh with a multitude of complications. We held a bed side vigil and an emergency bedside baptism. We heard "I'm sorry I wish we could have done more" and experienced every high and low that goes a long with a NICU stay. We said a million prayers and a wish on every star in the sky. Our boy is 8 years old and thriving in every way. An incredible force to be reckoned with. He loves the WWE; he doesn't even know he's been champion from his first breath. He also loves Michael Jackson. He’s the “Mayor of Rolling Ridge Elementary” and he radiates joy into every room with his blues eyes and a crooked little grin!

Where are they now?!?

Grady baby Londyn was born premature at 33 weeks and 4 days with multiple congenital anomalies. Doctors stated her chances of surviving utero were 0%, and if she did survive, she would likely only have two weeks of life max.

To prove doctors wrong, Londyn was discharged from the Children’s Hospital of Pittsburgh after 200 days inpatient. What was never suppose to happen, became a reality…

And on September 15, 2026, this miracle turned 7 years old. 7 years of proving the odds wrong. 7 years of fighting, overcoming, and showing the world just how strong she is. Nothing has stopped her, and nothing ever will!

If you ever get the chance to talk to her, she will tell you.. God made me the way I am because that is exactly how he wanted me to be. 💙

Grady’s Prayer Warriors! Please pray for baby Wesley and his family:

Wesley was born at 33 weeks and 6 days at 8:09pm on Sept 14th, 2026; just hours shy of being 34 weeks. I was considered high risk at 28 weeks and 6 days with a shortened cervix and already started to dilate. We knew he was gonna be preterm but we didn’t know when he wanted to come.

His due date was October 27th, 2026, but I started having preterm labor symptoms on September 13th, 2026. My husband and I went in and found out I dilated more to a 4, got checked later and found out I was at a 6. I got admitted and they treated me as if I was in active labor.

When Wesley was born, he had some respiratory distress and had to be given oxygen immediately. I held him for a few minutes before they had to take him to the NICU.

He was 6 pounds and 3.5 ounces, 19.29 inches when he was born. He is currently doing well, stopped needing his breathing tube roughly 10-12 hours after birth and is currently doing bottle feeds 48 hours after birth 🦝🍼💙💜

After 111 days in the NICU, sweet baby Emir is finally home with his parents! 💙

Emir was born at just 25 weeks, alongside his twin brother, Emil, who was born sleeping. After an incredibly long and difficult NICU journey, Emir’s family is beyond grateful to finally have their sweet boy home where he belongs.

Emir’s family would like to extend their heartfelt gratitude to Grady’s Decision for the love, prayers, and support they provided throughout this challenging journey. They would also like to thank all of the amazing NICU nurses at Saint Vincent who cared for Emir and his family and have become such a special part of their lives. The bond created during those 111 days will never be forgotten.

Please continue to keep sweet Emir and his family in your thoughts and prayers as they begin this beautiful new chapter together at home. May their days ahead be filled with love, healing, precious moments, and the joy of finally being together as a family. 🙏🏻
