'Young and the Restless' Star's Newborn Baby Admitted To NICU For Collapsed Lung

'Young and the Restless' alum Jordi Vilasuso has revealed his newborn baby daughter, Lucy, has been admitted to NICU with a partially collapsed right lung.

The 42-year-old actor welcomed his daughter with his wife Kaitlin in December at 35 weeks.

Unfortunately, Jordi and Kaitlin have now revealed Lucy has been admitted to the hospital after she had difficulty breathing and is now begging the public for prayers.

Three days ago, Kaitlin took to social media to share the heartbreaking news.

"Ah friends.. we come to you coveting your prayers yet again. I feel like all I do is ask you all for prayers or thank you for prayers.. I suppose that is just the season we’re in right now," the actor's wife began before explaining that on Monday, their daughter had been "admitted to the hospital with difficulty breathing."

Things "unexpectedly took a turn for the worse" Monday evening as she was moved to NICU with "what the doctors described as a partially collapsed right lung."

According to the Mayo Clinc, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes infections of the lungs and respiratory tract. RSV can "cause severe infection in some people, including babies 12 months and younger (infants), especially premature infants, older adults, people with heart and lung disease, or anyone with a weak immune system (immunocompromised)," according to the research clinic.

"I am still struggling to believe this as I type," she admitted, before begging the public for prayers "for miraculous healing for Lucy’s precious little body."

"We love her so much and just want her home and happy and in our arms," she concluded.

Many friends and family members commented on the post, sharing their thoughts and prayers for Lucy, including Emmy-award-winning actor Darin Brooks and 'Once Upon A Time' actress Lana Parrilla.

'Days of Our Lives' actress Eileen Davidson also commented on the post, expressing, "Prayers and love for Lucy."

Last month, Kaitlin and Jordi announced the birth of their baby girl. "It is with overwhelming joy and the fullest of hearts that we welcome the answer to our prayers, our sweet Lucy Noelle," Kaitlin wrote on social media at the time, adding, "We have been waiting so long for you, little girl. ‘You are something between a dream and a miracle'."

"Thank you, beautiful friends and family, for the part you have played in this chapter," she continued. "I wish I could say that it was a purely faith-filled journey from our first loss until today, but God’s honest truth is that knowing you were holding our family in your prayers was often what got us through. I know I’ve said it before, but we are truly forever grateful."

On Sunday, January 28, Kaitlin shared a photo of Lucy to her Instagram Stories, showing her daughter still hooked up to breathing machines and in the hospital.
