Our Last…
…week together just the two of us
…4 days in the house we designed and built ourselves
…walk down Bugg Road
There are too many “lasts” this week. It’s a bit depressing but I know that it’s all for the good. We did find a house in Columbus, nothing special, but it’ll do well for us.
We did decide to go to Philadelphia to pursue the best possible chance of survival for our baby. We have a real sense of peace about this decision now. At first we didn’t and we were ready to stay in Atlanta. I think that was really our way of completely letting go and putting the baby in God’s hands. I think we have done that and even as we decided to go to Philly that peace remained. I think we’re doing the right thing and God is really opening doors and blessing us during this time.
So we leave on Tuesday and will be gone 2 to 2 1/2 months. We will be staying in the Ronald McDonald House in Camden, NJ, which is about 20 minutes from the hospital apparently. I will be creating a carepage for the baby when I get there so those that are interested in following only the baby, and not have to endure the other things on my blog, will be able to do that. I’ll post a link to that when I have it.
So there we are, going to Philly on Tuesday, and coming home in a couple months to a different house. Just a little bit of change going on right now.
J and S -
Brooks and I are thinking about you as you walk this journey. I applaud your bravery for accepting this challenge placed before you. I pray that you and S cherish this time together as you prepare for the new little life that will consume your world. You are wise to take a moment and appreciate these “lasts” but I promise they will pale in comparison to all the “firsts” you have ahead of you. I will continue to keep up with you all. I am praying my heart out for you all Love you lots! Chris
Best of luck to the three of you… always.
Thanks CC and Dave. Your support means loads.
Your family is in my thoughts and prayers. I will pray for guidance for the doctors in Philly as well.
Thinking of you,
Jenn Dooley
Thanks Jenn, it’s been a long time. I hope you and yours are doing well.
You and Sunette, along with baby Payne, are in our prayers. We are so proud of the wonderful man you are and so thankful God gave you such a precious wife. God will be faithful to all 3 of you!!
