Lizzie has a baby!

Congratulations LIZZIE!

Lizzie’s baby is in Joburg Gen in the ICU, so we can’t get photos. Besides, she has so many tubes and wires around her, you can hardly even see her.

Her name is Kgaladi and she weighed 800 g at birth. She was born at 27 weeks. Lizzie had to have an emergency Caesarean Section.

Lizzie has been home for a week now and visits baby every day.

Kgaladi is fighting hard, but this has been a difficult week. She has lost some weight and had to receive additional blood. She is being tube fed as she cannot suck herself yet. Luckily she has did not developed jaundice.

All the best from the staff at Khulisa - we hope she can come home soon!
