If you don't believe in miracles, you just might after hearing this story. Joy Lofton's 19-month-old son will spend his first Christmas at home after spending nearly a year in the Neo-Natal Intensive Care Unit at USA Children's and Women's Hospital. A hospital spokesperson says little Jaden is the second smallest baby on record to go home from that unit. Lofton says her son weighed less than a pound when he was born and calls Jaden her miracle baby, "I know there are people, parents, right now in the NICU and I know how it feels, you know, it's hard when,you know, you can't, you don't have your baby at home for Christmas, but, if you just have faith and keep, you know, praying to God, anything's possible, because, he's proof of a miracle," said Lofton. Lofton says Jaden was only 11.5 ounces when he was born. She says he's expected to make a full recovery.
