SAN DIEGO - A nonprofit organization donated $400,000 to UC San Diego Medical Center's neonatal intensive care unit, it was announced Wednesday.
The gift, from San Diego Nice Guys, will be used to purchase "giraffe" beds that function as an incubator and radiant warmer for premature and critically ill infants.
The donation was made in memory of a premature infant named Isabella, who weighed just over 1 pound at birth. She died just a few days after returning home from three months in UCSD's Medical Center's NICU.
