The NICU Journey Box by Every Gram of Gold
The Founder

My daughter Olanna was born at 24 weeks weighing 744 grams. We spent 178 days in the NICU before she came home.

Years later, she started asking questions about her beginning.

I could tell her what happened. I had the hospital bracelet. The tiny clothes. The keepsakes.

But they couldn't tell her what those days were like. They couldn't tell her how we celebrated every gram. What we feared. How much hope each milestone gave us.

Those moments still live in my memory. I'll never forget them. But I can't go back and write down what those moments felt like while I was living them.

So I created Every Gram of Gold to help other families preserve not just the milestones, but the thoughts and emotions behind them while they're still living them.

Because one day, your child will want to know the story behind every milestone.

One day your child may ask where their story began.

Make sure they can read your words when they do.
