I started reading your blog then, and little did I know that what I read here would come to fruition in my own life.<br /><br />At 37 weeks and 3 days pregnant I went into labor. My delivery was normal, but my baby girl had trouble breathing shortly after birth. The NICU nurse was called down to observe her. She made the decision to observe her more closely in the NICU for a few hours. Then the long wait came, and the NICU doctor came to my room and said they were admitting her so they could do further testing on her lungs. <br /><br />I never imagined that my baby even after 37 weeks would ever end up needing the help of the NICU. With all the help of Harris' amazing NICU staff, she was able to come home Monday after a week. Her time there was exhausting on our family to say the least, but we did whatever we had to do to make sure she was going to be ok. After I was dishcarged from the hospital, I spent a few 13.5 hour days up there. My family got just a little taste of what your family is going through right now, and my heart breaks knowing the strain and stress it causes having a baby needing that much care.<br /><br />There is nothing like getting to walk next to your baby out of those NICU doors, loading them in their carseat, and getting to step into your home as a new family for the first time. I cannot wait for that moment for Baby Cooper.<br /><br />I pray for Baby Cooper and your whole family through this difficult time, and I know what good hands God has placed him in with the staff up there.<br /><br />The Kunkel Family<br />valeriekunkel@gmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6703393868898000460.post-2561465720832196862011-07-25T17:54:24.746-05:002011-07-25T17:54:24.746-05:00Looking Good, prayers still coming from NY!Looking Good, prayers still coming from NY!myriam guerrerohttp://www.facebook.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6703393868898000460.post-19170545251335436342011-07-25T17:19:15.211-05:002011-07-25T17:19:15.211-05:00We are so happy to see how he is progressing and p...We are so happy to see how he is progressing and pray he will continue to grow stronger each day.
