  <itunes:summary>The NICU Parent Support Audio and Podcast Channel was created by Dr. Kirsti A. Dyer a respected physician, professor and former NICU Parent. The channel is a series of downloadable Podcasts and Audio Messages recorded to support for parents and families who have babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit or Intensive Care Nursery. 

This audio channel is a collection of audio message that provide information, encouragement, support and comfort.

Download the messages, listen to one each day to help you make it through your NICU experience.

The audio message episodes are divided into selections for information, encouragement and comfort. You can listen to the ones that are the most interesting or relevant to your situation.

I hope that that these audio messages will be informative, encouraging, comforting and supportive to you during your time in the NICU.
