Babies update (pictures added!)
Sep 20^th, 2008 at 6:34pm

Well, we made it to 23 weeks. Jen was admitted to the hospital yesterday because her cervix is 100% funneled, and the only thing holding the babies in now is her stitch (cerclage). They have her on terbutaline to stop the contractions.

She is going to be there for the duration. She is at the same hospital, in the same room (I think) where we lost the twins last time. Life is full of nice little ironic surprises like that.

So, Jen isn't in a really social mood, so I wouldn't recommend calling her, but maybe a card would be nice. It helps to know people are thinking about you.

Here's the address if anybody wants to send a card. If you do send a card, please don't mention the loss of our first set of twins. Positive thoughts and energy... that's what works.

I appreciate all of you.

Thanks for the address.

Aw Shawn...I feel so badly for you. But then again this just may be Gods way of making the both of you be taken care of. If you're in the hospital, you can't be running around crazy, working and then trying to get back to the hospital to see the wife. Now you're in the same place when you can sneak down the hall and give your wife a kiss....go back to your room and have a scrumptious meal prepared by someone else...read the paper...watch a movie...and just give up the idea of always having to do everything. This is probably YOUR chance to rest.

Yep....It's GOD plan for you. You've had too much on your shoulders lately.

Hang tight babies.

OHH! You guys need a break!
The vibes are coming, double strength to all 4 of you!
Fu, take it easy, heal yourself! The good news is you are close to your family, and work be hanged for now.
Jen, perhaps some good chick flicks, and lots of rest.......
Babies.........like I keep saying.. hang on tight!
There are tons of people praying, vibing, cheering you all on and sending you the best they have to give........

Happenstance is a pretty odd thing. When my mother in law was hospitalized, my brother in law vand his wife came down to see her. She was quite ill at the time, and it seemed important they see her. Mom got a double room, but it was all hers till my brother in law and his wife arrived. As they were visiting with Mom, a new patient was brought in. A very ill woman, herself, we didn't think much of it.........till my siter in law looked at some flowers that had arrived. It was my sister in law's mother! They had been estranged for many years, but after all this time and distance, these 2 women ended up in the very same hospital room. Eventually, both women died within hours of each other....but that didn't happen till my sister in law made AMENDS WITH HER OWN MOM.......Chance, or divine interference?

I'm constantly reminded miracles come in some very unique packages..........

Now, babies.........please hang on!

Shawn......you must feel helpless. I'm so sorry to hear of this latest development. You've just got to turn it all over to God and get some rest. This is a terribly hard time for you both and we all wish so that we could help in some way.

Get well, get as much rest as possible and give your wife lots of hugs. You'll get them back at the same time.

God bless you all. Prayers are coming from all directions.....that's the magic of Clusterville.
