👋 Meet Dixie, Barrett and Crew!

When the triplets were born at just 30 weeks, knew they had a long road ahead. Immediately after birth, Crew was rushed to Nationwide Children’s. Soon after, he was diagnosed with VACTERL Association, a rare group of birth defects that can affect multiple systems in the body. Crew underwent several surgeries during his NICU stay, including a lifesaving surgery when he was only 3 pounds, 7 ounces.

Barrett was born with microtia, an abnormality of the outer ear that can impact hearing, and was transferred with Dixie to Nationwide Children’s NICU. The three of them continued to grow and heal together. Crew was the last to leave the NICU, and after 11 weeks, they were reunited at home.

On World Prematurity Day, we celebrate their incredible strength and the expert care that helps them thrive. Their journeys are a reminder of the resilience of all preemies and the dedication of the NICU teams who support them every day! 💜
