Jack Valentino is Here!

Yesterday, my wife, Erica and I went into the hospital around 6am because she was having some weird stomach pains. These turned out to be contractions, and they decided at 9am to do an emergency c-section. An hour later, at 9:59 AM, Jack Valentino Centola was born 3lbs 15oz. He was only 34 weeks, so he is 6 week premature. He is having some breathing problems, but they were able to stabilize his blood pressure and his blood sugar level. We have been transferred to Strong Memorial Hospital, and Jack is in the NICU, one of the best in the country.

He is doing great and getting better every day. He is in our prayers… He’s a fighter!
