When you meet Kimber, the first thing you’ll notice is her infectious smile. But things haven’t always been so joyful for the De La Cruz family. The beginning of Kimber’s life was full of obstacles they had to overcome together.  Kimber was born at 27 weeks’ gestation. Weighing just 1lb. 15oz. and measuring only 13.5 inches long, the doctors knew Kimber would have to fight for her life in the neonatal intensive care unit at CHRISTUS Mother Frances Hospital – Tyler. After 84 days in the NICU, Kimber was finally able to come home.

At just under a year old, Kimber was officially diagnosed with Hemiplegic Cerebral Palsy, meaning so her right side is weaker than her left due to damage sustained to her brain as a complication of prematurity. Kimber’s ongoing physical challenges include weakness in her right arm and leg, balance issues, and a minor speech delay, but that doesn't slow her down!  Whether dancing to whatever music may be playing, cheering for her siblings at their sports matches, or simply hanging out with her family, Kimber is a happy four-year-old girl!  

During her stay at the NICU, many of the advanced pieces of equipment used to save Kimber’s life were purchased by Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals. To help her grow stronger, she currently receives occupational, physical and speech therapies and attends the CHRISTUS Trinity Mother Frances Special Needs Clinic, provided by Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals.
