Yawl are THE BEST! On Terri's behalf, thanks soooo much! I'm sure when she reads all these great responses, she'll be blown away.
I haven't heard from her; I'm sure she's at the hospital. But I know she'll respond as soon as she can.
It's amazing how something like this puts your own problems into perspective, and makes you realize what's really important in life. Terri's had more than her share of unhappy times; it's so unfair because she's really a love.
Thanks again you guys!

How so very awful! My thoughts and prayers go out to everyone. This kinda thing is not supposed to happen. It's supposed to be a joyus time for everyone. Amazing how in a minutes time things can change for the worse! This makes me so sad when I hear about these kind of things happening.
PLEASE tell her we are all thinking of them.

Yes, I am blown away by all these wonderful, loving, supportive statements. I cried like nobody's business when I read them. I am so moved! I had my husband read them, too, because I knew that he would be just as uplifted and encourgaged. (He's had very little idea of what I even mean by IBS boards and has no idea what we do here.) Let me tell you, that he sat here and cried, just like me! He thinks you are all wonderful, and so do I!!!
Now for the update:
Liana and Makenzie both did better today. Kenzie's ventilator was turned down some, so that she is doing more of the work herself. I don't really understand all of this, but I do know that it's a good sign and she's a little better. It's still one day at a time, but I was happy that she was at least a little better.
Liana's hemoglobin came up almost 3 points today, following her transfusion. She needs it to come up at least 2 more points and maintain that level. She looked better today and had more strength.
I am cautiously optimistic concerning both of my girls, because I learned how quickly things can change. But, I am being as hopeful as I can be. Today they were better, and that's good.
Thank you all for your prayers and support. You guys are just the best group of people on the entire world wide web!
I appreciate everyone of you and treasure every single precious word of support.
I will keep you posted and please, please keep praying.
I love you all! Thanks for taking some of your time to pray for us and to write your supportive posts. It means so much to me and my family.
Love,
Terri
p.s. Thanks Bevrs, for speaking for me when I was just in too much shock and dismay. That's so nice of you!

Terri - my prayers are with you. I had a preemie (my daughter) and it was the most heartbreaking thing watching her struggle. Remember that babies are really stronger that you give them credit for. They will surprise you with the strength that they have. My daughter pulled through after a difficut struggle. I only can imagine your heartache. My love and thoughts are with you through this extremely difficult time. I understand. I was there.

First, I want to thank you all again. Everyone of you have been so helpful. I've read every post and taken it to heart and it's helped me so much.
Liana had to have another blood transfusion yesterday, but they sent her home today. She's still very weak and tired and in a lot of pain. She has to take iron pills for 2 months to try to build herself back up. She's severely anemic from the blood loss. I guess it will just take some time. It's been very hard on me to watch her suffer like she has. Please keep praying for her. She is still in need of so much healing.
Kenzie is still in intensive care. She won't eat yet, but as soon as she does; she'll be near ready to come home. Everything else is fine with her now, so we're getting closer to the day she comes home. Possibly within 4 to 7 days. Liana is also very depressed about not having her baby with her. This is a very hard time for her and us.
Liana's husband's boss is giving him a very hard time about not coming back to work yet, and that's also added to the stress and depression in my daughter's life. He told them that he would not leave her or his baby until he knows they are well. He has vacation time and it shouldn't be a problem. He'd talked to his boss before the birth, and it was all supposed to be worked out. Ugh! Just another thing to worry about.
I really, really appreciate your continued prayers for us.
Terri
