This episode we sat down with mom Ashley Kreyskop-Naglak from Levittown Pennsylvania. She lives there with her husband Blake and their furry friends.
Ashley and her husband Blake learned they were pregnant with their daughter Nora in January of 2023. The pregnancy was uncomplicated until about 26 weeks when Ashley started to experience rib pain. After going to the hospital, being treated and discharged, then readmitted, she learned that she was in liver failure, HELLP syndrome, and needs to be delivered emergently. Nora was born on June 3rd, 2023.
She did very well in the NICU until day 7 when things started to take an unexpected turn. An x-ray revealed that Nora had a hole in her bowel as a result of Necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC). Nora passed away later that day.
Ashley, thank you for sharing your story of the life and legacy of Nora <3
