My name is Angie and I am a single mom to an amazing little 10 month old girl. Her name is August and she was a NICU baby.

When August was 5 days old, I was sat down by a team of the world's best neurologists and shown her MRI scans from the previous night. The brain damage was massive. I was told she will never walk or talk or use her hands. She was born via ER cesarean because I was bleeding out; she had no oxygen. It took our surgeon just under five minutes to get her heart started. She was rushed to Boston Children's Hospital... I wouldn't meet her until three days later, as I was recovering at Beverly Hospital.

But. August is a miracle. She's beat the odds.

I work with her every single day, and have since the moment she came home. She has hit every single milestone and is even ahead of the game!!! I am more grateful than words can imagine.
