Doctor saves premature baby, baby grows up to be a fireman and saves the doctor 30 years later

The rescue actually happened back in 2011 but they recently reunited for a fundraiser which is why the story is now trending.  Personally, I like the last sentence in the story.

Trokey was just 3.2 pounds at birth, and doctors had initially gave him a 50/50 chance at surviving. But his pediatrician — Dr. Shannon — helped save his life, staying with the infant around the clock until his health improved and he was stable.

“It’s amazing to watch them all grow up, but to have one come back in your life, on a day you really need it, that’s really incredible,” Shannon said.

On Sunday, the two met up again for a good cause, both shaving off their hair to raise money to potentially help save others live.

“It’s a great feeling, and now he’s my son’s pediatrician,” Trokey said.
