PALs for the NICU Parents

This week, the WIC chaplain, Virginia, came and spoke to our moms. She had a fantastic presentation on coping with the stress of having a newborn in the ICU. She used the acronym "PALs" to represent the need for people, acceptance, and learning. This presentation brought out many emotions for the moms, and offered a great opportunity for the moms who had been there longer to encourage our new moms.

I plan to update this post soon with a great video on Kangaroo Care, but I am currently having some technical difficulties!
