A Visit To The NICU Where My Son Was Born

33 years ago, my Son was born.

Being he was 32 weeks when born, he ended up spending a month in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit at Holy Cross Hospital.

I have not been back to the unit, since we brought him home.

Yesterday, I decided to bring my Husband over to the Hospital, since it was raining when we got up.

Our local CT Scan machine was on the blink, so they sent him down to LA. The appointment was set for rush hour. Right...

Once we got there (in plenty of time, I might add) we had to wait.

I took a walk around the area, and followed a sign to the NICU. It wasn't far, at all.

A nice employee explained that the windows that were there 33 years ago are now gone, so you can't see the children. Back in the day, the window was right above his incubator.

My Husband thinks it is probably for privacy concerns, so people can't take photographs of the babies.

No matter what, I did take a photo of the door, which has such cute animals hanging around the doorway. Note the cat down below!

It looks so much nicer than what I remember.

I was quite pleased.
