Jett’s Story

Jett Payne’s journey with Dell Children’s began the moment he was born. After 36 hours of labor, instead of a cry, there was silence—Jett was trembling and slow to respond. Within hours, his shaking turned into seizures, and he was transferred to Dell Children’s Neuro-NICU, one of the only programs of its kind in the country. After 12 days of round-the-clock care, including ventilation and careful medication management, Jett was strong enough to go home. Today, he’s a thriving, mischievous toddler—walking, talking, and getting into everything—exceeding every milestone along the way!
