FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — After spending almost 200 days in the neonatal intensive care unit at West Boca Medical Center, the smallest baby to be born at the hospital is finally on her way home.
Cheyenne Tomblin came into this world Sept. 11 weighing 12 ounces, doctors and medical professionals explained at a news conference held at the hospital Tuesday morning.
“She might be small, but she’s bigger than everybody else,” said Hermine Wallace, neonatal intensive care unit staff nurse. “She gets ready to fight, and she’s been fighting since day one.”
