I was all ready with a post dedicated to Miss Charlotte's nurses at Chester County Hospital, but there are more important things to talk about right now.
I'm asking for more help here people.
Peter's cousin, April, is pregnant with her second child. A baby girl. A baby girl who is due December 8, 2010. A baby girl who will probably make her entrance much, much sooner than that. April's little girl has a chromosomal disorder causing severe complications. The heart is underdeveloped and there is swelling around the baby's organs. Her heart rate has begun to slow down, and it doesn't look like there is much more time before this girl makes a very untimely entrance.
April and her family know that they will not spend this life with their girl. They have friends and family offering support and love, but this sweet daughter will not come home with them.
Please, say a prayer tonight. Give thanks for all that you have.
And then, ask, yet another time, for peace and comfort to be given to a family that desperately needs it. Ask for reassurance; ask that those they interact with will be kind and compassionate. Ask for peace. Ask for charity. Ask for a miracle.
Being at peace with the adversity in our life can be the biggest miracle of all.
And miracles happen. They happen everyday.
Send her my way friend--i know what this is too well. If there is anything I can do I will happily try to be for her what you have been for me. She'll be in our hearts tonight.
