Wow

I hadn't checked my email in a few days. Sometimes I'm too busy...playing games and checking Facebook. At any rate, when I checked my email this morning, I received a pleasant surprise: several people had shared and commented on Joshua's story. Complete strangers have passed it on and they have reached out to me and it's awesome.

To those bloggers, moms, and fellow NICU veterans, thank you. Today I was feeling sorry for myself because I am so tired, and then I was reminded how many people are praying for Josh and want him to grow.

And to those who I've gotten to know through this, or who I knew before, or who have known me since I was a baby - thank you, too. We could not have made it this far without you.

And to the inventor of Diet Coke - I love you most of all.

  1. You'll make it...yes, Diet Coke...AMEN..that pic of Joshua is adorable! You know what was the hardest for me when we were in the NICU those two times, for what seemed like months on end, was seeing the full term babies that you knew were REALLY sick and knowing they probably wouldn't make it. But we can tell by Joshua's pictures, he's a fighter!

    1. Yes, there have been a few little ones here who haven't made it. It's so sad and it reminds me of what I do have.

  2. I'm passing you on as much as I can. You need all the emotional support you can get, it'll help you through the trying times.

  3. Just remember to take it one day at a time, that's what helped me to get through it! Sending prayers your way! P.S. You're allowed to feel sorry for yourself every now and then! ;0}
