Meet Jayce: Neonatal Intensive Care - 2013 Advertising Campaign

Born 4 months premature and weighing only 1 lb., 9 oz., Jayce could fit in the palm of your hand. The super-preemie had complications with his heart, lungs and eyes - and was unable to breathe or eat on his own. But he was a fighter, spending the first month of life in the neonatal intensive care unit at Akron Children's Mahoning Valley. With the help of Dr. Elena Rossi and a team of doctors, Jayce is now healthy, happy and home.
