There is a point where if your born too early, death is a better alternative than developing out of the womb. These babies suffered constant skin peeling, brain bleeding, perforation, spesis, and more due to their premature status.
In a way this story is a kind of cruelty to these children, and they may have lifelong disability depending on how they came out.

Babies who were expected to die in front of parents who wanted them, after months and months of complications, ended up alive an well and in care of loving parents.
It also shows advance in natal care, advance in our understanding of development in and out of the womb, and gives some hope for many parents who have experienced troubled pregnancies.
