| Mandi didn't have such a great start |
|
|
| in the NICU at Englewood Hospital |
Amanda had a really tough start in life...after a very difficult pregnancy she was born on
August 3rd 1991 at 6:45 p.m. after 2 contactions...she weighed 5 lbs and was 16.5" long, at 33.5 weeks and rushed into the
NICU. It was touch and go there for awhile with her but by the grace of God she is here today...the sunshine of our
lifes! Her smile is contagious as is her personality. She is sweet, tender, commited and loving, and if she decides
she likes you...she likes you forever!
