Geoff Calkins (The Commercial Appeal): She ducked into the small bathroom, just off her baby's room in the neonatal intensive-care unit, a room that has been the center of her life since the fourth day of May. This is where Bridgette Stone spends her time. This is where she watches her baby -- born after just 27 weeks -- sleep and breathe and grow.
The days can merge together in this unit, a blur of hope and prayer and love.
"It's been hard," Bridgette said. "I can't deny that."
But Thursday was special. For Bridgette and the baby and -- honestly -- everyone in the NICU.
Bridgette ducked into the bathroom. She emerged, wearing a white dress.
