They brought me a recliner so that I could stay there with my hand on my baby all the time. I only left during the shift changes twice a day, which is when my mother in law brought my 2 year old up to visit me each day. We lived in Fort Collins so it was a lot of driving for Jeff who had to work each day and my MIL who brought my 2yo up to see me. God provided for us richly during that time, we were lucky with a good outcome for Ed- he was hypoxic/anoxic for "far too long for a good outcome" but God overcame and Ed was healed. Praying for you through this time.Amy Joneshttp://twitter.com/birthblessednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6888282.post-25327058734004284602010-04-25T12:44:28.199-06:002010-04-25T12:44:28.199-06:00Gracie and your entire family are in our prayers.Gracie and your entire family are in our prayers.Tinker Kellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6888282.post-64223922440034768582010-04-25T12:43:24.840-06:002010-04-25T12:43:24.840-06:00Praying as you ask, John, for all of you!Praying as you ask, John, for all of you!munchkinmom9noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6888282.post-59962355832259825012010-04-25T11:55:21.761-06:002010-04-25T11:55:21.761-06:00We are praying, hoping, pleading, and praying some...We are praying, hoping, pleading, and praying some more for your precious granddaughter ...SouthCarolinaMomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6888282.post-57006854946514566432010-04-25T11:21:34.672-06:002010-04-25T11:21:34.672-06:00I have lived these experiences.

I have been a regular on the SL boards for several years but have been away for a while due to life circumstances and just found your blog via The Beam. I took some time today to read all of your posts about Gracie, and will be checking back regularly to see what the new specific needs are. Know that your entire family is being prayed for from the Middle East.<br /><br />In regards to your last two paragraphs: my husband and I lost an infant son 10 years ago. We knew the statistics regarding loss of a child and divorce (similar to those related to premie stress), and we promised each other not to become part of the negative side of that statistic and prayed together to that end. I commend you for acknowledging those statistics and being committed to combating them. Bringing the tension "into the light" in and of itself can work wonders towards dissipating it. I will be praying specifically for supernatural peace in the midst of seemingly unbearable stress.mideastmomnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6888282.post-62702289542295075132010-04-25T02:05:55.873-06:002010-04-25T02:05:55.873-06:00Praying for you from Germany.Praying for you from Germany.Lanesnoreply@blogger.com
