Bobby Salt was born on February 12, 2024, at 4:57 p.m. at Belleville General Hospital. He was born not breathing and experienced a seizure during his first hour of life. Due to this complication, he was rushed to the Kingston NICU just a few hours after birth. "Since I had just given birth, I was unable to accompany him to Kingston and had to remain at the hospital in Belleville. My husband, Nick, followed Bobby’s ambulance to Kingston and was able to reunite with him after his initial tests were completed," said Bobby's mom, Hannah Salt.
