Royal and Jubilee Hospital, Belfast.
Bernice Jordan’s baby was due on 5 February 2004, but she suffered high blood pressure and pre-eclampsia in November and was admitted into Royal and Jubilee hospital. Alicia-Leigh Jordan was born on 25 November, nearly 3 months premature and weighing just 2.5 lbs. Bernice was also told that Alicia had Downs Syndrome. “I never got to see her for the first 4-5 days,” said Bernice, “but they sent me photos and information.”
After spending 10 weeks in hospital, Alicia came home, and now, just 12 months later, she is doing very well. Bernice said of the neonatal team: “She was well looked after and in good hands…you were like part of the family”
