FAMILY'S PLEA FOR FESTIVE DONORS

- BY LUCINDA CAMERON

'MIRACLE' BABY'S FIRST CHRISTMAS

A GRATEFUL mum yesterday thanked blood donors who saved her miracle baby's life.

Nicolle Hollick is looking forward to Alexandria's first Christmas after the little girl received four transfusions.

The family, of Dunfermline, told of their joy as a plea went out for more donors with figures showing the number of people donating has fallen to 1.7 per cent of the population.

Alexandria was born at 26 weeks weighing just 2.1lbs.

She received four transfusions and spent 102 days in hospital before being allowed home.

Nicolle said said: "She was born at only 26 weeks weighing 2.1lbs, so she was very tiny and very early.

"After 102 days in hospital, in April this year, we brought our baby home. She had been through so much in her wee life already.

"She was intubated at birth, needed oxygen support at home and received four blood transfusions.
