Miracle Mum, Karina shares Austin's story.

"This is Austin. He was born at 29 weeks, weighing 999g at Mercy For Women.

My blood pressure was over 180 and I needed to have an emergency operation.

Austin stayed in hospital for 51 days in total. He weighed 2.288kg when we finally got to take him home.

I want to send a special thanks to everyone at Mercy NICU, SCN - they are doing a great job!"
