Dear NICU familes, staff and registrants,

We are ON! Our team is excited to welcome you to today's NICU Reunion.

Current weather forecasts indicate that there remains a risk of thunderstorms during the event.

At this time, the Reunion is proceeding as planned, and we will continue to monitor weather conditions closely throughout the day.

Please bring whatever you need to have fun today! Rain coats, jackets, boots, umbrellas and get ready to dance in the rain!

The safety of all our families, children, volunteers, and staff is our highest priority. If thunder is heard or lightning is observed in the area, we will immediately suspend all outdoor activities. We ask everyone to be prepared to seek shelter in their vehicles or another safe indoor location until it is safe to resume the event. Evacuation may be a possibility.

Activities will remain suspended for at least 30 minutes after the last sound of thunder or sighting of lightning. Once ce conditions are safe, we will let everyone know when activities can resume.

We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we work to ensure a safe and enjoyable reunion for everyone. We look forward to seeing you today and hope the weather cooperates!

We are so excited to see you!

Dear NICU families, staff and registrants,

We are looking forward to welcoming everyone to tomorrow's NICU Reunion.

Environment Canada is currently forecasting thunderstorms during the time of our event. The safety of our NICU families, children, volunteers, and staff is our highest priority, so we are closely monitoring the forecast throughout today and overnight.

At this time, the Reunion is still scheduled to proceed as planned.

However, if the forecast continues to indicate thunderstorms or unsafe weather conditions, we may need to cancel the event.

A final decision will be made before 6:00 a.m. tomorrow morning. If the event is cancelled, all registered participants will be notified by email as soon as the decision has been made.

We appreciate your understanding and patience as we monitor the weather and make the safest decision for everyone. We hope the forecast improves and that we will be able to celebrate together.

Thank you!

We will be in touch if there are any changes.

The Mount Sinai NICU is proud to take part in CPBF’s National Kangaroo-A-Thon 🦘❤️

Here is Fabiana's experience with kangaroo care.

"I was terrified the first time I did skin-to-skin with Gabriel in the NICU. I remember wondering how it was even possible to hold such a tiny baby.

He weighted 900g.

Fourteen years later, I can still close my eyes and feel his little body on my chest. so fragile and skinny, almost like a Barbie doll. It felt so different from holding my first son, a full-term baby. But in that moment, despite all the fear and uncertainty, I truly felt like his mom.

It was an explosion of love, connection, and reassurance that together we were going to fight through whatever came next"
