Justice Berteig

Newborn

1998-1999

After Justice was born, he was put in an incubator in I.C.U. for 3 days.
T hey were worried he might have an infection, but he was fine.
I was very sad that his first days started like this
(notice the I.V. in his hand all taped up).
July 3, 1998.

 

This is the first time I got to see what my baby looked like.
I was so excited to see him for the first time.
When I saw him, I couldn't believe my eyes.
He looked so beautiful to me - like an angel.
