Default Born the size of a dollar bill, woman now 50 years old!

Pretty cool story here in London. This woman was born the size of a dollar bill, three months premature in 1957, and she just turned 50.

Unreal that today the survival rate is 95% or greater. Having had some complications when our son was born, I can really appreciate the technology and training in todays medical feild.

People waited in line at the nursery window for a glimpse of the "little mite."

My mother used to work at ICN at the General Hospital with premature babies. She'd show them to my siblings and I. My sister would adore them, but my brother and I used to go into dry heaves looking at the little beggars.
