Here is one small (but lovely) story of a preemie highlighted in the 5/18 People Magazine:
Grategul & Giving Back
When I see pictures of premature babies with problems I think about how blessed I was that I dodged every bullet. When I was in fifth grade I couldn't read the board, so I had to get glasses. I didn't like them but then I remembered I could have been blind, so I shouldn't complain. When I was born I had blood transfusions. I started donating blood when I was 17; now I try to donate every two months. I just got back from a service trip to Guatamala, and I've done three trips to Mexico. I know God has a plan for my life--otherwise, he wouldn't have kept me around.
