Poor Addie


Well, I don't really have any good news to report. The nurse just left. Addie is really struggling to breathe. We had hoped the doctor would prescribe something to thin out her mucous so she wouldn't struggle so much to breathe, but apparently he doesn't think it will help. She's coughing a lot and sounds horrible.

Please pray for her, if she is to go, I really don't want it to be like this. But then, I know that I just really don't want it at all. We are in need of some serious strength right now. I am so in love with my baby. She is a beautiful person. I am holding my breath over how the future is going to play out. My heart breaks for Ainsleigh and the idea of her losing her baby sister.

Mom and Meghan have been alternating coming to help me. Without them I would have lost my mind a long time ago. Carly is coming on Friday. Please pray that Addie hangs in there long enough so that Carly can meet her. I feel so helpless to do anything for my poor child and I feel like the doctor has given up on her.

We have been blessed to have all of this time, but it makes it so hard to let go. I have to tell you all that I am so amazed by how you and so many others have reached out to us and I hope we can do the same if you ever need anything.

Keep her in your prayers tonight.
