3 babies. 2 sacs. 1 life-saving medical miracle.
When Amber found out she was pregnant with triplets, it was a surprise. When she learned her babies had developed a rare and dangerous condition called Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome (TTTS), it became a fight.
At just 17 weeks, Amber underwent an incredibly complex procedure that separated three babies sharing one placenta, two of whom were even sharing the same amniotic sac. It was a combination so rare, her care team had never seen it in medical literature.
Thanks to a delicate, precisely executed laser surgery and the strength of her care team, all three babies—Lelan, William and Bennett—made it through. Born prematurely at 27 weeks, the boys spent nearly four months in our NICU. Each had their own path, but it was Lelan, born first and smallest, who faced the toughest challenges—multiple infections, intestinal surgery and a feeding tube.
But with time, care and a lot of love, all three boys are now thriving. Lelan came home on Thanksgiving Day, just in time to celebrate his first holiday with his brothers. Today, they’re all healthy, happy and finally under one roof.
