At birth, Poppy was no bigger than a tennis ball and easily fit in her father’s hand.
She needed care 24 hours a day and her parents stayed by her side night and day.
And even though they had just become parents, Hannah and Steve had to prepare themselves to say goodbye.
Hannah even bought a little stuffed bunny for Poppy so she wouldn’t have to be alone in her coffin.
But days became weeks and weeks became months and Poppy refused to give up.
Every day, the doctors were shocked by her development. And for the first time, they felt hopeful about her future.
Poppy wasn’t going to leave this earth for a long time.
Even though Poppy still needed oxygen, Hannah and Steve were finally able to take their daughter, or as they call her, their little miracle, home.

Poppy was the seventh smallest baby ever to survive. Share if you also think that all children are miracles!
