 to begin receiving a regular salary again and contribute to the payment of medical bills. My breast milk supply dwindled and I missed the opportunity to be present at times when my sons really needed me. My husband was completing a master's program and providing care for one baby at home while the other baby remained hospitalized. I would stay after my shift at work to visit my baby in the hospital to hold him, change his diaper and breastfeed or give a bottle and then rush home so my husband could come to the hospital to see him for the night. We were so thankful that both of our sons survived a very critical situation and that things were improving for our still hospitalized baby.
