Usually, when we hear happy and uplifting stories, they feed our souls. This is particularly true when babies beat every obstacle and finally come home from the hospital.
Tru Beare was born 14 weeks early and weighed just one pound. Today, the sweet girl is a big sister and thriving!
Pregnancies and the birthing process come with a whole series of new challenges.
From eating healthy and taking vitamins to staving off morning sickness, there’s no question a woman’s body undergoes a massive transformation.
More challenging, though, is often the birthing process—inexplicable pain and sometimes severe health-related complications. In the case of Tru Beare, born severely premature, her first few months of life came with a slew of hardships.
Tru Beare’s Incredible Struggles
Born in January 2016, she spent her first four months of life in the hospital and in an incubator. During her time there, she suffered from blood clots, chronic lung disease, MRSA, retinopathy, a congenital heart defect, Necrotizing Enterocolitis (twice), and two blood infections.
Tru Beare Takes on the World
The Royal Columbian Hospital in New Westminster, British Colombia, Canada, worked nonstop to help the little girl become healthy and succeed. By day 71, Tru Beare was able to move from the incubator into a crib. On day 90, doctors were able to switch her to low-flow oxygen. Things were looking up, and finally, after 4 months, her parents were able to bring their new love home. Tru Beare is now a proud big sister ready to take on the same milestones as other kids her age.
