I am currently taken aback by these statistics as I learn more and more in my fact-finding mission. Prematurity is definitely on the rise and I applaud this blog for getting the word out. People who have not experienced the struggle just have no idea what parents go through when this happens. My friends did it, and I cannot even begin to list their struggles. One thing I do know, for those interested in learning more like I am, is one book coming out called Blessed with Tragedy. It is written by the father and details the entire ordeal. I found it riveting. Again, seeing this struggle firsthand and now volunteering to help around the world with the Early Journey Foundation, I am so glad people are talking about this. We have to get the word out as much as possible. This is a serious situation that no one is talking about. The dialog must begin.
