JEFFREY! Oh my gosh, that was the greatest video ever. I sat up in my chair and squealed with delight when I heard/saw her cry. What a blessing!
I've been absolutely riveted with Abigail's story and moved beyond words with the faith and courage your family has exhibited.
My thoughts have mostly been with Lisa. I wonder so much what her heart is feeling as she tirelessly sits aside her baby's bed. I wonder at the countless tears she has shed both from comfort and the peace the Gospel brings as well as the possibility of relinquishing her precious baby back to the arms of her maker.
Please, please tell Lisa I'm praying for her. Tell her my heart, tears, and faith are given in her behalf.
And to you both, may I say with gentleness and fervent testimony: 'Therefore, fear not, little flock...Look unto me in every thought; doubt not, fear not. Behold the wounds which pierced my side, and also the prints of the nails in my hands and feet; be faithful, keep my commandments, and ye shall inherit the kingdom of heaven.'
I'm so grateful to call you friends. I love you both and look forward to meeting your special Abigail Rose.
You don't know me personally, but I am Emily Wrights sister. I have been so touched by your story, and the faith that you all have shown. I can't imagine what you all are going through right now, but I'm grateful that you are sharing your story through this blog. It makes me hold my kids a little tighter each night. Your little baby girl is so precious, and she is so lucky to have you as parents. That little video is very precious, I love that little cry, and the way she loves her binky. Good Luck with your journey. We will continue to pray for her. Angie
Dear Lisa, It's Laurie Roddy (Knudsen). I'm embarassed that it has taken this type of news for us to reconnect after all these years but I couldn't read without posting. My brother Sean just sent me this link about your beautiful baby Abigail. What a journey you are on. I have a deep admiration for the people who are selected to experience this type of journey. It's clear that not only have you been blessed with a very, very special spirit but that you and Jeff are both very special parents who have been chosen because of those special attributes you have. LOVED seeing the video the crying baby. A whole new appreciation for crying babies now...
I just wanted to let you know you and your family will be in our thoughts and prayers and I'll look forward to reading the updates. She is absolutely beautiful!!!
On a side note, one of my high school friends is married to a cardiologist at Stanford. (Dr. Brinton) Although I don't know him I know his wife and would be happy to contact her if there is anything you need or any questions you may need answered. Sometimes back doors can be helpful. I'm going to email her to ask her hubby to be on the lookout for you guys. I believe they live in Menlo Park too.
Well, I'm off to squeeze my kids one last time before they doze off. Gentle reminders are always good... :) Love, Laurie 425.396.7365
So PRICELESS!!! Who would have thought that Abigail showing off her lungs with her cry would make so many people so happy!!! After seeing her laying so still it was a very happy moment to see her crying.
I am amazed at every post because of your strength that you have shown to so many of us. We all continue to keep you in our thoughts and prayers and sit on the edge of our seats to hear yet another update. Keep the Faith!!!
Oh...Abigail looks beautiful!! The video is priceless! Thank you for sharing such tender moments! You both are what living the gospel and having faith are all about. Our thoughts and prayers are with your family. We pray that Abigail can come home to her loving family soon. With love, Saras & Sanya
