When I saw her last night it only made me more amazed at how blessed we are to have A wonerful hospital and doctors that know exactly what to do to give her every possible help for a healthy body.

I can't even imagine all of the pain you've been going through. I lost my dad the day that I gave birth to my sweet baby boy Thomas on Monday and even through my heartache I thought of you and wished that I could be there for you in some way. I know that I have said before that you and Chris and your sweetest little girl but you so very much are. Keep hanging in there my sweet friend. Heavenly Father is without question a God of miracles. I know because I felt that all day on Monday when I didnt' think at first that I could have a baby the day I lost my sweet dad to cancer. There were countless miracles for me this week and I know that Heavenly Father is there for you too.

There is nothing more powerful out there than prayer and miracles happen when it is the Lord's will. I can only imagine the helplessness you feel--just remember we have a loving Heavenly Father who loves her more than anything and is giving her peace and comfort as she is fighting and getting stronger. You will feel that peace as well. I love you guys and cannot wait to meet little Jersey. I will definately be in the presence of a special strong spirit. I love you all. <BR/><BR/>P.S.

I completely understand all of the feelings and emotions that you have right now and I think they are all so very normal and it's okay to feel them. It is so hard what you, Jersey and your family are being asked to endure right now, but I do know that the Lord will give you enormous amounts of peace and comfort when you ask Him. I am so sorry that you have to experience this and sometimes it's okay to say, "this just plain stinks!" I pray that Jersey will continue to make progress no matter how small and that her doctors and nurses will know how to best care for her. Try to give yourself a chance to heal and recover as you have just had a baby!<BR/><BR/>Love, KeisaThe Ridgway Familyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13643186231322346483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2104410522046781324.post-53323968502969334122008-12-07T13:10:00.000-08:002008-12-07T13:10:00.000-08:00Please pardon the typos, they are to be expected w...Please pardon the typos, they are to be expected when one is excitedKimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18336960354984394578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2104410522046781324.post-84829638853163133342008-12-07T13:09:00.000-08:002008-12-07T13:09:00.000-08:00Hey, progress is progress and the opposite or regr...Hey, progress is progress and the opposite or regress.
