SPECIAL MEETING, SPECIAL MEMORIES â Twenty years after her birth, âMiracle Babyâ Abbigael âAbbyâ Balzano, seated center, looks at a scrapbook of photos taken after her birth in 2000. With her are her mother, Rachel Balzano, seated left. During a routine prenatal doctorâs visit, Rachelâs water broke and a prolapsed umbilical cord emergency situation put a team of health care professionals at then Trinity East into action to have Abby delivered through a Cesarean section. Retired registered OB nurse Pam Welsh, seated right, was one of those team members who had always wondered what happened to Abby, a question answered when longtime friend and fellow nurse Becky Salvino, standing, connected with Abby, a nursing student at the Franciscan University of Steubenville where Salvino is one of her instructors. The four gathered at Franciscan in March for a first-time meeting where they refrained from mask-wearing for the photo.
