Katie’s Hand, photo by Harold Davis. View this photo larger.

Katie’s hands are tiny, mobile, expressive, and elegant. Each hand is a perfectly formed minature. Katie Rose gesticulates with her hands. She spreads them out in front of her in a classic preemie gesture when the stimulus is too much, balls them up, and them spreads them again. I love these hands of Katie.

When we visited Katie in the NICU today her weight was up 15 grams to 945 grams, approaching the magical 1 kilo benchmark. One day at a time, knock on wood, all is going well.
