Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
When Rhys was born 8 weeks early, after an uncomplicated pregnancy, our world was thrown into termoil. At no point during the previous 32 weeks had anybody told us what to expect if we had a premature baby. The staff at LGI and Jimmy's were fantastic and after a couple of scares we finally got him home 7 weeks later, a week before his due date.
We were lucky, other than being early and forgetting to breathe every now and then, Rhys was a healthy baby. We met other parents however who weren't so fortunate. To those parents the work of Bliss was invaluable.
We were lucky again last year when Connor made it to full term with no complications, one in every 9 babies in the UK however, is born either premature or sick. That’s over 80,000 babies every year with one being admitted to special care every six minutes. By supporting Bliss you can help those babies and their families have the best possible care and support at a very difficult time.
