NORFOLK, Neb. (AP) — A little Nebraska boy and his family are getting used to their new life at home near Norfolk.
At last.
Keagan Sullivan spent the first 30 months of his life tethered to hospital machines.
His mother, Katlinn, has a genetic disorder that required medication to reduce the threat of blood clots. Complications set in when she was pregnant with Keagan. He was delivered early, before his lungs were developed. He weighed just 1 pound, 8 ounces.
While Keagan was at Children’s Hospital in Omaha, Katlinn stayed nearby. She went home during the week for a day or two to see her husband and their daughter, McKenna, and then headed back.
Keagan’s still dependent on machines, but now they’re all home, enjoying being together.
