At Duke


Tricia's getting her CT scan right now, which takes just a few minutes. Gwyneth is getting her early morning nap. I'm getting caught up with emails.

You can only hope that Gywneth will always display such patience while waiting for her parents! :):) BTW, I think you should get some sort of kickback from Graco, for so beautifully demonstrating the safe comfort of their product!!
Praying for good news for both of your girls this week. When you make drop-in visits at the NICU and on 7800, the staff will be thrilled at how wonderful Gwyneth and Tricia are both doing! When I was still working in the CCU, we always loved it if former patients stopped in to say hello. It is so rewarding to see them back into their home routines after seeing them so sick and their families so stressed at the time!

You have such a beautiful daughter! I am praying for good news for all after everything is done. I wanted to let you know that I put a link to your site on my new blog. If its not ok, let me know.

Here's an NPR story I heard recently, that might help rally people to the transplant cause:

Gwyneth looks so peaceful and sweet. I love knowing that she is free to be herself now. I sure can see that Grandpa Rick has bonded big time with her:) Praying for excellent reports for both of your precious girls. How sweet is it to be there only for a doctors visit, knowing you are going back home to the beach??

Love Laurie in Ca. ( The other beach)

I have a really dumb question, and please don't anyone attack me for asking.

Here goes, since Gwyneth was born so early and so tiny when she was born, will she always be tiny? Or will she eventually "catch up".

Edwards Family said...

Nate, I think Gwyneth looks just like you :) second I have a son born on Dec. 30th and I am always amazed at how small baby Gwyneth is compared to my baby Preston since she was born prematurely. It has brought new awareness to my prayeres for parents of preemies. Thanks for sharing your story of the struggles of being a preemie parent. I am sure it has helped readers to understand more. We struggled with infertility, and the more we shared the realities the more we realized there were others just like us. Keep the faith. With love from Thailand

Lord Jesus, we praise and thank you for the lives of Nathan, Tricia and sweet Gwyneth. Thank you for all you have done for them and through them. Thank you for giving Tricia such a caring and tender-hearted husband. Give him strength, patience, stamina and a deepened faith in you as they wait. Give Tricia a calm heart and peaceful spirit as well. We boldly ask you to intervene in Tricia's life, Lord, and grant her health. Amen
