Could you email it to me, please?

She was in shock at birth and they did not expect her to live. She was a fighter and after six weeks she made it home to us. During our stay in the NICU I was always checking out your blog and your archives to see the same things that you had to go through. It was so helpful to see you get through it and to have two beautiful girls. Thanks for all your help. I do not really have a network out here in California so it is nice to be able to check out your blog and others as well.<br /><br />Lisapartyof6https://www.blogger.com/profile/05628053420478235262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7915600.post-15275960834953962412010-01-16T15:05:02.804-05:002010-01-16T15:05:02.804-05:00Hi!

I also follow more than 200 blogs, and I'm sending a very special message to all the blogs I follow: YOU have the chance to be part of a miracle!<br /><br />If you are a member of Facebook or know someone who is, please take the chance to do something incredible!<br /><br />Chase Community Giving is awarding $1 million to 5 charities! The Gwendolyn Strong Foundation is working to find a cure for Spinal Muscular Atrophy - and they could use the money!<br /><br />Fast Facts:<br />- SMA is the #1 genetic killer of infants under the age of 2<br />- 50% of those diagnosed will not live to see their 2nd birthday<br />- kids with SMA lose the ability to sit, stand, walk, talk, eat, swallow, and breathe<br />- 1 in 40 people is a carrier<br />- the National Institute of Health says that SMA is the #1 CURABLE disease if given research funding<br />- right now there is NO cure and NO treatment<br /><br />Want to change that? Vote for the Gwendolyn Strong Foundation on the Chase Community Giving app on Facebook! You have five votes to tell the world that you want a CURE for SMA!<br /><br />Tell your friends and blog contacts - let them know they could be part of a MIRACLE - be part of a CURE - and give these kids a FUTURE!<br /><br />Thank you!Sarahhttp://www.voteforsma.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7915600.post-70159993851731824552010-01-16T09:17:56.939-05:002010-01-16T09:17:56.939-05:00You guys look great!

That first paragraph could have spewed forth from my own fingers.

It's a small thing that brings a lot of happiness to my very long days in university. I think there is something very therapeutic about watching Eden and Holland grow into such well-adjusted and clever and happy kids, in that as a now 19 year-old living with CP (similar to Eden's & born at 27 weeks) reading about their beginnings and ensuing years helps me to better understand what I went through and find more peace with it (as well as appreciate everything my parents went through on my behalf).

And we'll never forget how much you guys (in virtual reality) gave us solace and hope as we began this journey three and a half years ago.abbyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03403145277760263562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7915600.post-41275730794175451872010-01-11T16:37:01.689-05:002010-01-11T16:37:01.689-05:00Hi!

I am glad you decided to keep blogging, I wish I could dicipline myself enough to blog..or at least to journal! <br /><br />I came across this neat website that turns your blog into a book, and thought of you.
