Alexi, age 5, talks about being a preemie born too soon

LissasWorld - 01:29pm May 10, 2012 EST

Prematurity has become a worldwide epidemic, with 15 million babies being born too soon every year. Out of the 15 million premature babies born, more than 1 million die shortly after birth. I was blessed with a daughter who not only survived, but has beaten all odds after being born 3 months early. Not all families are as fortunate as mine was to have proper prenatal care and expensive treatments for my daughter in the NICU.

To watch my 5 year old daughter proudly talks about herself being a premature baby (with my help!), please click here:
