A Thread for prayers, good vibes and what have you

Re: A Thread for prayers, good vibes and what have you

I continue to ask for good thoughts, vibes, and prayers for Andrew, Jenica and Baby Kollin. I know the due date is fast approaching and I think it is getting to be tougher at times. A recent status on Facebook read "Well, we got thru reading "Goodnight Moon" to Kollin last night before bed with minimal tears. In fact we were giggling a little bit. Hoping for an uneventful and relaxing day. I can't seem to kick this cold! Mommy and daddy love you Kollin". After that Jenica posted: The next book will be a LOT harder to get thru, but dangit....we are reading it!!!!! Even if it takes 2 hours!.

Again I cant even imagine the range of emotions they are going through knowing that their child will be lucky to survive the birth and that it will be a small miracle to survive much longer than that. But they are showing an amazing amount of strength and courage and I think part of that is due to the amazing support they have been getting from family, friends and even strangers. Thanks everyone.

Tough day at work. Lots of people who are hurting emotionally. If you feel inclined say a prayer for all those who are feeling lost and overwhelmed. Many times they have physical complaints because when they can't cry from without they cry from within. This is a tough time of yr.

If they are Believers, be sure and baptize Kollin the minute he's out of Mommy, nothing fancy, just say, "I baptize you in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit". I'm sure he can hear thier prayers if the pray outloud too. Even with just a mustard seed of faith he'll be in Heaven when God calls him home. The Holy Spirit is with him; have faith.

We've had a couple deaths in our congregation over the last 24 hrs. God called 2 fine folks to Heaven, people who had faith and used it to the Glory of God here on earth. They will no longer feel the pain of the humanly ills that beset on them. They are rejoicing today. Naturally those of us still here are a bit sad. Death still sucks for those of us left. May their families and loved ones turn to God for strength in this time of need.

Sorry for your losses in the congregation. That is always tough. Those left behind are the ones who suffer.

As to the baptism- God made this child. He doesn't need cueing to figure out to bring him home. The baby is God's without any action on our part. He is God's child no matter what us mortals manage to do or not do. Pray for the parents. They are the ones that need it.

Just wanted to pass along that Andrew and Jenica have read the thread and appreciate the thoughts and prayers. I believe she had a visit with the OBGYN today (and they are right in the thick of all the snow hitting the midwest). Hopefully that goes well.

On other baby related news a co-worker of mine had his first child this week. A girl named Kennedy Laurel. So good thoughts to him, his wife and new child.

Nice to see good news.

Thanksgiving that my mammogram was normal. w00t!! 2 family members have had breast CA by age 47 and one died at 47. Ladies get your mammos!

Still praying for that couple. Toughest thing to go thru. They sound amazing!!

Sad news to report about baby Kollin. I just received a text from Andrew that Kollin has passed. Today at their appointment they were unable to find a heartbeat and an ultrasound confirmed it. Please keep Andrew, Jenica and baby Kollin in your thoughts.

Baby Kollin did get a chance to go to a LSSU Laker hockey game while in utero though. Andrew was happy to have that moment. Im sure baby Kollin was kicking with joy when the Lakers scored.

Very sorry to hear. (actually crying, but there isn't a crying face) My thoughts go out to your friends during this very very difficult time.

My condolences to your friends. Prayers are being said.

On a happier note, our first grandchild, Michael James Murray, was born last night. 7 lbs, 9 oz, 20 inches long. Mom and baby doing well.

Congratulations! (Just a quick note, he's the same size I was when I was born and I never got taller than 5'3", so maybe you'll have a Gerbe, but I'm doubting a Boyle )
