What are the odds?
MT. PLEASANT— Brighten Day Bradley, Kezzie Jewkes Hill and Rexley Rayne Palmer were all born on 2-22-22 at Sanpete Valley Hospital. Two of them are the second child born to the family, and one of them was actually born at 2 p.m.
“As the labor and delivery manager, I always get excited to be a part of deliveries that occur on certain holidays like New Years,” says Suzy Zahler, OB Nurse Manager at Sanpete Valley Hospital. “So as the date of 2-22-22 was approaching, I was hoping we’d get a baby born on that date. Imagine my excitement when we had not one, not two, but three born here on this date, and one of them at 2 p.m. Who would have ever thought that possible at our rural hospital?”
“Kezzie is our second baby girl,” said Whitney Hill, proud mom of Kezzie Jewkes Hill, the baby born at 2 p.m. “She weighs the exact same as her older sister did, too. Kezzie’s name honors generations of her great-grandmothers.”
Nathan and Charly Bradley say their baby, Brighten Day Bradley, was also their second child. “Our new lucky number is two now,” says Charly. “We are the luckiest family in the world to have our two girls as ours, to have Brighten join our family. Family really is the most important thing. A special thank you to doctors and nurses of Sanpete Valley Hospital and the Manti Clinic. What a wonderful staff to work with to bring our new baby girl into this world safely.”
Rexley Rayne Palmer’s mom, Hillary Palmer, says, “It’s been fun to have our baby be one of the three born on 2-22-22, and we’re so grateful and thankful to have her here safe and healthy. Thank you to the nurses, doctors, and all the staff of Sanpete Valley Hospital for taking such good care of us.”
As a small token gift to remember this day, Sanpete Valley Hospital gave each baby a special onesie created just for the occasion. It says: “Special Delivery – Tuesday 2-22-22.”
