Time is measured in minutes not days. Life is found inside the walls of the hospital. We found ourselves with only God to turn to, even the Dr's had things taken out of their control. Know you are in our thoughts and prayers, and please feel free to contact us as it is a special bond to understand the feeling of having your little one go through so much. <BR/><BR/>We also just read your latest post, and I wanted to share when our Katherine Rose was in a drug enduced coma, we could only hold her hand...but that was so important. Read your favorite scriptures to her. Pray with her. Know that you are being her parent by doing that, being on top of the medical situation, and holding onto your faith. <BR/>You remain in our thoughts and prayers.<BR/>Paul, Cara, Grant and Katherine Rose SchroederAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3368260619439668105.post-56244427322985295522007-11-28T12:35:00.000-06:002007-11-28T12:35:00.000-06:00That last comment was from Heather and Karl... :)That last comment was from Heather and Karl... :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3368260619439668105.post-5894968121943785872007-11-28T12:34:00.000-06:002007-11-28T12:34:00.000-06:00Matt and Nicole~I'm so sorry for all that you and ...Matt and Nicole~<BR/><BR/>I'm so sorry for all that you and little Evie are going through.
