Tiny ones!

This is the smallest baby have taken care of. She was about 2 lbs. at birth. Only a few kids that size have survived here. She is three weeks old now but still very weak. Please pray God continues to work a miracle for her. - Scott

This little baby was a twin, but his brother died shortly after birth. This one was about 3 pounds at birth, bigger than his brother. Which gives him about a 50% survival rate here in PNG. The mom named the baby Scott. I explained to her that Dr Scott used to have really dark hair like her baby!

Praying for the little ones right now. It's pretty amazing how someone so small can have everything he/she needs to survive all wrapped up in such a tiny package!

So precious! Takes me back 16 months to when my twin grandgirls were born at 2 lbs. 15 oz. and 3 lbs. 5 oz.
