VIRGINIA BEACH, Va. - On February 11, 2020, Virginia Beach mom Kelsey Steele delivered her baby, Laylani, 14 weeks early. Laylani came out strong. She was one pound, four ounces - she was really a miracle, Steele said.
Laylani, also born with sickle cell disease, spent 90 days in the NICU at Sentara Princess Anne Hospital. She was intubated, had oxygen going straight down her throat, Steele said.
Laylani was a fighter, and weeks later, Steele wanted to dress her in her own clothes for the first time to take newborn pictures.
