“Our little Harper still isn’t home with us.”

While little Harper is “doing so well now,” Snezana said but not being able to take her home from hospital has been devastating and that she has not yet met her siblings, Willow, four, Charlie, two, and Eve, 16.
“I know she’ll be home soon enough and her three big sisters will finally be able to meet her but till then it’s back and forth to the hospital a number of times a day whilst trying to keep it together,” she shared.
Snezana and Sam Wood’s daughter, Harper arrived one month early.

“So here’s a story from the last 5 days…….On Wednesday May 4th, one month early we welcomed Harper Jones Wood to the world,” he began.
“30 minutes after this photo was taken. Snez became sick. Really sick and before we knew it Harper was off to the special care unit and Mum was into ICU.
“Of course in true Snez Mum fashion her only thoughts were for her little baby and it was breaking her heart that she couldn’t hold her.
“After finding an infection that both Snez and Harper had picked up and some incredible care from the nurses and doctors they were reunited yesterday and both doing well.”
He went on to gush about his wife, writing:
“@snezanawood you really are the strongest and most beautiful person I know and like you, thank god the force is strong in little Harper.”
