A 720-gram baby in the NICU is not just fragile — she is, medically speaking, at the very edge of survival. Preterm infants at this weight face a constellation of life-threatening complications: lung collapse, brain bleeds, intestinal infections, sepsis, and multi-organ instability. Every hour of care she receives is a calculated, expert effort to keep her on the right side of those odds.
