Marty had a very difficult start to his life. He was born positive to drugs and exhibited withdrawal symptoms that caused him to remain in the NICU for over a month. Both parents were incarcerated. However, Marty's father began to work very hard while incarcerated and has been clean and sober for just over a year now. He has surpassed everyone's expectations and Marty was recently placed with his father. Marty and his Dad are living in their own apartment that is operated by an organization that helps people re-incorporate into society. The CASA says the Dad and Marty are great together. He is a loving Dad and Marty is a happy bubbly baby. Their challenge is getting a crib/mattress for Marty as it is not safe for him to sleep with his Dad.
