I read so many stories on why parents started their kids in homeschooling and each one of them has given us the courage to pursue this road less taken. I hope that our own story below can resonate with those of you who are at the verge of embarking on this incredible journey…
A Medical Emergency
Serina, my wife, had twins who were born at 28 weeks – that’s 3 months premature compared to the usual 9 month gestation period. Babies born this early are known to be confronted with enormous developmental challenges, including potential for bleeding in the brain, eye-sight issues, gross and fine motor skills debilitation, and potential for permanent and serious digestive system issues. The twins were in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) of our local hospital for 3 months. Born at 2 pounds each, our twins were one of the most fragile out of the entire NICU patients.
At the lowest point of our stay at NICU, the twins both contracted fungal infections, and our daughter was given a 50/50 chance of survival.
