DISQUS

Zoeyjane · 1 year ago

seriously, you are wrenching my heart out. one day at a time.

jnbammer · 1 year ago

we feel the same way Zoeyjane.

oh god, i didn't mean to seem so insensitive! OF COURSE it's so hard for you. i can't believe you're able to write a bit at a time and post it all!

i'm constantly thinking of you guys, though. which is pretty much the same as saying i'm praying.

jnbammer · 1 year ago

You weren't being insensitive - no worries.

Thanks for sharing the story, Jeremy. I'm looking forward to reading the next part, as heartbreaking as it is. You're quite the story teller :)

jnbammer · 1 year ago

Thanks Huckdoll! Originally, I debated about whether or not to write about this experience, but I was talking to a nurse in the NICU the other night and she said that this is a topic that many people don't understand. She also said that it might help to get more dads in to see their kids in the NICU, as she sometimes thinks that dads might feel excluded. So....I'm hoping, no I'm praying, that I have a happy ending to tell for this story. Thanks for reading!

Hang in there Jeremy, there is nothing that God and those doctors can't do these days. I have been in your shoes...@DeAnnaCochran and I will keep you in our prayers.

Thanks Stacey! We appreciate your thoughts and prayers very much, and it's good to know others can relate (and have a happy ending).

I'm convienced your going to pull each one of my hear strings individually, this is excrutiating.

jnbammer · 1 year ago

Hey Kel! I don't want to pull your "hear" strings out - you might need them! ;-)

I hate when you call with the best of news and people only greet you with negativity. Like your great news you were conveying on the phone to those people. Congrats again!

jnbammer · 1 year ago

I know - I always try to just be positive and let them lead the conversation; however, that is one reason I don't like talking on the phone. People seem less negative in person when they can read your facial gestures and body language.

Wow...a cliffhanger. I hope everything is okay.

jnbammer · 1 year ago

Me too!

Tom · 1 year ago

Oh no... you're leaving us hanging again! I pray everything is okay... I'm sure she'll be fine in the long run. Hang in there, both of you!

jnbammer · 1 year ago

Thanks Tom! We appreciate the prayers.

Hang in there man...hopefully the next installment will be a bit more positive. Glad to hear the cannula is out though....thats always a really good sign.

jnbammer · 1 year ago

Yes, we were pleased with that news at the time too.

Ahhhh! These cliffhangers are nerve wracking! Hope all is going well with Caitlin.
