Hannah Bella Rodriguez spent the last three months in an incubator and was finally allowed to go home this week
A baby who was delivered when she was just 25 weeks old and weighed just 1lb, 4oz when she was born, has finally been discharged from the hospital and allowed to go home. Nassau County Executive Laura Curran and hospital staff members who helped care for her were present during the special ceremony that saw her leave with mother Jennifer Pena de Mena.
According to the Daily Mail, Mena was hospitalized in June with unknown complications in her pregnancy. When the baby's heart rate began declining at an alarming rate, doctors took the difficult decision to deliver her 13 weeks prematurely.
