His parents are Megan and Lewis Slocombe, of Pentwynmawr, and his siblings are Ethan, five, and and Ella, three. Mum, Megan, said: “Peter was born five weeks early via emergency C-section due to me having two seizures and my blood pressure was too high. He was taken to the NICU as he needed extra support with his breathing. After two weeks Peter was discharged and was able to meet his brother and sister. We would like to thank the HDU staff for taking care of me and also a big thanks to all the staff in the NICU for taking care of Peter.”
