PAIGE & PARKER EDDISON, AGE 2

Paige and Parker’s due date was April 22, 2019, but the twins had other plans — deciding instead to arrive on Jan. 13 at just 25 weeks gestation. As their mom, Ashley, was being brought to the delivery room in the Central Regional

Health Centre in Grand Falls-windsor, she knew the Janeway’s Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Transport Team was on the way. Ashley says she will never forget the relief she felt seeing the NICU team come through the door, knowing her babies were in good hands.

Two ambulances and two planes were outfitted with mobile ICUS to ensure the babies were transported safely to the Janeway’s NICU. It was there that Paige would spend the first three months of her life, and Parker would spend the first six months of his, in their environmentally controlled incubators, receiving Level III care.

“Paige and Parker are doing amazing and will continue to visit the Janeway for their checkups. Our Janeway Family saved our babies and gave us incredible support,” says Ashley. “The past two years were a rollercoaster, but we had the perfect team on our side to get us through.”
