Anailyn was born premature at just three pounds, six ounces after sixteen days in the hospital and an emergency C-section. She couldn’t breathe on her own. Doctors diagnosed a severe blood infection, spinal meningitis, a grade four brain bleed, and fluid on her brain. At one point, we were told she might not survive. This episode shares the full story of eighty-six days in the NICU — the fear, the faith, the help from Children’s Miracle Network, and the family who carried us when we couldn’t carry ourselves. We also open up about the seizures that came years later and the resilience that was forged in that hardest season. Today, Anailyn is growing and thriving. If you’re walking through a medical crisis or holding onto hope in the dark, this episode is for you. We Are the Hansons.
