Moji gave birth to her rainbow baby Grace at 30 weeks and 6 days gestation. Five days into their NICU stay, she and her husband Shane received shocking news--Grace was born with a coarctation of the aorta and would immediately be flown to another city to prepare for open heart surgery. On today’s episode, Moji traces her birth journey, Grace’s surgery and her family’s NICU stay. Moji and Erika (the host of Story Sanctuary) also discuss how their stories overlapped during this difficult time and benefits of building a support community while in-patient.
