Delivery is accelerated due to mothers becoming a urinary tract infection during pregnancy, Gregor Craig-kun was born in a very small body.

Although it was the first time to protect using cushioning materials, it succeeded successfully, Gregor became able to live with his family at home in Argyle, Scotland in five months after birth.
