Dearest People,

Thank you for your prayers and emotional support. Unfortunately, after four days of touch and go, the twins were delivered at less than 23 weeks. While they survived but a few hours, I nonetheless thank God for the blessing of that short time.

My wife endured immense pain and discomfort, as well as emotional ups and downs, for four days. She put in an effort that can be described only as heroic and selfless. This day she is my hero.

Again, thank you all, and if I can't find the effort to thank each and every one of you right now, please understand that it isn't for lack of my appreciation.

Bud

Dear Smedley, I am so sorry. But you didn't lose your boys forever. They'll be waiting for you in Heaven. God bless your wife and you in this most sad time.

Ditto BUMP to #2 and #3. The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and rescues those who are crushed in spirit (Psalms).
