2024 Northeast OH March for Babies Ambassador Family

 

 

The Miller Family

Theo, the son of Patrick and Katie Miller was born 15 weeks early via emergency c-section at Cleveland Clinic’s Hillcrest Hospital the morning of October 26, 2018. Katie's pregnancy had been progressing normally, so Theo's early and unexpected arrival left Katie and her husband in complete shock. Theo was born at 25 weeks and 4 days, weighing 1 lb. 10 oz. Immediately following his birth, Theo was transported to the NICU on the second floor of Seidman Tower where he remained for the next 117 days. Over the course of that time, Theo overcame premature lung disease, a Grade 1 brain bleed, a PDA and Sepsis. After 117 days, Theo was discharged and brought home on oxygen on February 20, 2019 – 16 days after his due date (February 4, 2019). Today, Theo is a happy, healthy, fully adjusted 5-year-old who enjoys playing soccer, swimming, riding his bike, dancing and doing yoga. He has an impressive collection of Hot Wheels cars, trucks and tracks, and loves the movie Cars, specifically Lightning McQueen.
