Child Development Unit. Adult Cystic Fibrosis and Adult Pulmonology. Return to list of Specialties. End of list. Parents often develop strong friendships with the staff and each other during their child's stay in the NICU, and these reunions are a time for parents to renew old friendships, form new ones, and catch up on news and events.
Parents swap stories and pictures of their children, and the kids themselves enjoy the attention.
2nd Sunday in June of each year - for graduates of the NICU at Overland Park Regional Medical Center. For the hearts that opened, the smallest of prayers and the Lord our God, we give thanks. Our tears of pain, sorrow and fear have turned to ones of pure joy and wondrous amazement. We could not have asked for a more beautifully perfect gift of humanity as our daughter. No more oxygen, heart monitors, or medications.
