On Friday, Henderson Hospital celebrated its first anniversary by inviting all former neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) patients and their families to reunite with their care teams and enjoy special activities.
Critical Care Comics, a local nonprofit organization which brings comic books to hospitalized children and those undergoing medical treatment, helped celebrate the anniversary.
