Once the smallest baby born in Texas, she works as a Nurse in NICU of hospital that saved her life now



TEMPLE, Texas — When Tammy Lewis was born, she was 3 1/2 months early and weighed in at only 1 pound 4 ounces. Her family faced the harsh reality their newborn's survival rate was 5-10%.

But Lewis beat the odds and now, 34 years later, she works in the same NICU that saved her life.

"I was the smallest surviving baby in the state of Texas, at the time," Lewis said. "I was born at 24 weeks. Normal gestation is 40 weeks."

Years later, she works alongside some of the same doctors and nurses who treated her as an infant.

"I wanted to be able to give back to the patients and families in the same situation that I was in," said Lewis.

Born that small and young and not suffer major brain damage.  That's a miracle, alright.

I would considered myself a miracle baby too.  I was a very small baby from what my mother told me.  She said I was so tiny she could hold me in one hand and didn't know how to bathe or feed me.  My mouth was so tiny..

When I was born, I didn't even had a head...

It's a miracle I even grew one.

yeah, I read about cases like that when I was younger.  People thought the babies were girls and gave them girl names but later on, the head popped out along with the shaft and now they're boys with girl names.  Google it if you wanna read the details.   There was a term for it: Guevedoces.
