Baby girl born at 25 weeks continues fighting for her life, parents told she wouldn’t make it
A baby girl named Sylvie, born at 25 weeks and weighing one pound, is fighting for her life in the NICU at Le Bonheur Children’s Hospital in Memphis. Doctors initially told her mother, Presley Stevens, that Sylvie would not survive, but the infant has defied expectations. Sylvie has a grade four brain bleed and hydrocephalus, and her family drives from Hickory Flat, Mississippi, to support her.
