Baby Nora Makes Her Debut at Lebanon Hospital January 15, 2026 Samaritan Lebanon Community Hospital welcomed an early arrival when Nora Truett was born on Saturday, Jan. 3, at 5:19 a.m. Nora weighed 6 pounds, 2 ounces and measured 18 inches long. Her parents, Tori and Keith Truett, are from Lebanon and have a 2 ½-year-old son who has been eagerly awaiting his baby sister. Nora arrived 16 days early, continuing the family’s trend of early arrivals. The family anticipated she might come before her due date but didn’t know if it would be around Christmas or into the new year. “Our son has been so excited the entire time,” Tori said. “He’s happy to have a sibling and loves helping fetch things like her blanket. If she cries, he’s very protective.” The couple, who went to school together in Lebanon, shared their lighthearted goal for the year: “Keep everybody alive.” To celebrate, Samaritan Lebanon Community Hospital’s birthing center staff presented the family with a generous gift basket that included several items for the newborn.
