'She is honestly just a little miracle,' Gaby said at a news conference with her husband Jesus held online by Kaiser Permanente Saturday. 'If she can fight this hard for her life and overcome so much when she is so small, there is nothing the rest of us can't do.'
SAN LEANDRO, Calif. -- Valentina Alvarado, a premature baby who weighed only one pound, four ounces at birth, has not only survived but thrived and was able to go home with her parents to Castro Valley in January.
Gaby Alvarado, the baby's mother, was only five and a half months pregnant when Valentina was born Sept. 4, 2021 at the Kaiser Permanente San Leandro Medical Center. Baby Valentina's chances of survival were slim, but now, at six months of age, she is 22 inches long and weighs almost 11 pounds. "She is honestly just a little miracle," Gaby said at a news conference with her husband Jesus held online by Kaiser Permanente Saturday."If she can fight this hard for her life and overcome so much when she is so small, there is nothing the rest of us can't do."
Neonatal intensive care unit nurses, doctors, therapists, social workers and managers provided the care that saved Baby Valentina's life, hospital officials said.
