They may be too young to trick or treat this year, but these NICU babies are celebrating Halloween in style.
While spending the Halloween holiday in the NICU can be stressful for families, nurses at Broward Health Medical Center in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, put together a special Halloween magic by hosting a costume contest for children and their families.
Among the costumes were a pumpkin, Harry Potter, a mermaid, a little frog in a blue truck, Pac-Man, and even grape jelly.
