once again you have done a remarkable job of putting us uncomfortably in the moment with you. That's a good thing. Prayers for you guys always.

I cannot imagine not being able to stroke her cheek or hold her in my arms. Poor darlin'!

jnbammer · 1 year ago

That was definitely a hard thing to endure for both her and us. Thanks Nola!

I pray that everything is ok with your daughter. I am a NICU nurse and I really appreciate your transparency as you write about your daughter.

jnbammer · 1 year ago

Caryn - thanks for all that you do to take care of these precious little babies. I can't speak for other parents, but I want to say that I have the utmost respect for all of the NICU nurses I've met. You all are saints to these children. Thanks again!

I have to agree with that you have definitely pulled us into the situation with you and I can't imagine the heartache that you went through in this suituation let alone not being able to comfort your own daughter. Continued prayers coming your way!

Thanks Chris.

It's such a relief to know she was stabilized, and to have a pretty good explanation for the apnea in the first place. I know what you mean about wanting to touch your child when she's in pain, especially when they're so tiny. Hang in there... our prayers are still with you. Thanks for keeping us up to date!

Thanks Tom, and I agree, it's good to know that most things have an explanation (somehow it seems like things with explanations can usually be fixed).

I agree with the other commenters. With each post you write, I'm on the edge of my seat, eagerly awaiting more good news.

Good news is what we want to Soap!

I am sure everything will come out fine in the end, Jeremy. Really. I know myself that there's nothing that can be said to comfort a person in these situations, but whenever I am going through times of hardship and pain, I try to look a life as a long timeline, then I try to envision the section of the timeline that I am currently experiencing. Usually, if we're lucky, that section is a relatively small piece of the great whole. It helps me to deal, knowing that if everyone can just get through the short section, there's an entire other portion filled with good times, love and happiness. Stay strong and you guys will make it through. You're in our thoughts.

I agree Matt. Life is full of ups-and-downs, and you appreciate the ups much more when you've made it through the downs and maintained a good attitude along the way. I feel bad for people who get stuck (I was one of them for several years after my first daughter, but once I got through it, I appreciated life so much more).

Thanks for the compliment Andrea - I appreciate it.

You are killing me with these. I can't imagine what you are going through. I know I have said that a million times. I am totally with you in spirit, my friend.

Thanks Jim. I appreciate you sending all the positive vibes man - it does make a difference!

Jeremy. Lori. I'm not sure how you're doing it. These posts are just wreaking me. I think of all of you often.

jnbammer · 1 year ago

We appreciate the thoughts Chuck.
