A mother’s instincts are always correct. That was true for Melbourne resident Lilly Munro, who felt something was wrong with her unborn son, Lennox, at 24 weeks pregnant. She and her fiancé, Brodie Moles, rushed to the hospital, where doctors confirmed a serious cardiac issue. They had to induce labor immediately.

Lennox was born weighing just 1.8 pounds, with a 50/50 chance of survival. To keep his body temperature stable, he was placed in a plastic bag and connected to tubes and machines. Watching him fight for his life was heartbreaking for his parents.

Lilly stayed by Lennox’s side in the hospital for 111 days, while Brodie took care of their home and Lilly’s three other children. Despite the struggles, they cherished every moment with their newborn.

Thanks to dedicated doctors and nurses who went “above and beyond,” Lennox finally went home. Now weighing about nine pounds, he’s thriving.

The journey was tough, but their “miracle baby” defied the odds. The family is overjoyed, grateful for every step of Lennox’s incredible recovery.
