THIS POST IS A COMBO OF A LETTER WRITTEN TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS, I DON'T HAVE THE ENERGY TO REDO IT AND I APOLOGIZE, BUT, PLEAD FOR YOUR UNDERSTANDING AND YOUR PRAYERS!

Just heard babies r in hospital again, picked up aiden
yesterday=have not seen him today been in bed hurting
sick n tired, liked to killed me not being able to be
with him, just hurt to bad n too tired  checked email
tonight, Greg had written babies in  hospital/Chas in
one room Greg in other with babies/NO wt gain since
birth/doing tests, parents at wits end I hear and feel
it.  Prayer is needed  Forgive this pieced together
email---so tired n sick.  But I fully believe they
need prayer from everyone who calls on the name of the
Lord to get thru this, if ONLY  I could do more...be
near them...have energy---I dont...all I have is God
and those who will call on his name in their behalf...

Below is a note  I posted on the Christian site I love
so much, I am sorry I didn't have enough strength to
type out another such request....

Thank u  in advance for prayers lifted up, I must rest
now to have the (please LORD) ability to get AIden
back--already I know I wont be able to ge thim to
church as I so want to...he wont get that Spiritual
feeding he so needs anywhere near Mom I do know
that....yes I know he does in our home..but he NEEDS
to be in Church as we all do....

When we picked him up. got there first ..he was in the
front seat as they pulled up (Car seat????????) in
Moms lap--he got super excited 2 see us...Matthew saw
Mom say something to him...he as Matthew said looked
scared and calmed right down, but as soon as he saw me
(safety????) he brightened up was happy happy joy
joy--he jumped from Moms arms into mine...Mom in turn
forced his head around and kissed him full on the lips
when he wouldn't kiss on command..I got to him quicker
than Matthew could which is why me, I like Matthew saw
what happened, prayed he didn't and wouldnt...hurt
Matthew to see the no car seat--as per usual she
covered all bases, he is sick (NOT) constipated (he
was literally full of stool...but his good Nammy food
took care of that today--Matthew said HUGE HUGE,
output) don't take him outside she ordered, (they love
it) oh and of course no Medicaid card..we may be able
to take him to the doc.  He was SOOOOOOO happy last
night.  As was his Dad...

TY again ....and again forgive this messed up attempt
at a letter...back to bed 4 me.

LETTER TO CHRISTIAN GROUP....


I am hurting and sick and worried forgive me for the
brief words here...my body soul mind and spirit are
exhausted....yet I must fight to get these words out.

After speaking to both my son and  his wife...I need
ya ll to pray...HARD

Everything in my spirit is screaming for me to get
this out to the faithful...

I am hearing two worried worn out parents, who need a
break, and need each other.....they are a loving
couple stretched to the very limit.  Greg with his
pain, physical and mental....Chastity with her own as
well. couple that with the intense worry about a
baby-times two and you have a mess.

I could hear Chastity's blaming herself, I could hear
her need for her husband...I could feel her pain.

In talking with Greg I heard the same.

I assured my beloved Chastity that she has done
nothing wrong with her infants, everything right in
fact, assured her of her husbands love and devotion to
her, and his love for her for all she has gone thru to
give him those babies.and for being just Chastity.

Same with my son, his exhaustion and pain and fear are
evident in his tired voice in his worried tone...I
gave to him a Mommy's comfort for the little boy in
him yearns for it, I gave him the assurance that his
babies are fine!  And will be...told them both that
its amazing to me, that they are doing as well as they
are--taken early-sharing a space meant for one, sick
at birth-got sick again when going home (bug Ashley
had) they are working hard to recover...I said thank
goodness they have such parents who instinctively know
what they need and love them enough to give it too
them...or they would not be as well as they
are....assured them of the EXCELLENT hospital care
they are giving....the babies etc.

Then I had a private talk with my son, I talked at
length to let him  know I feel his pain, I comforted
him in every way I know too, he is my baby, but, then
I told him, I feel his wife's pain too.

I told him as a woman (not his mother) a woman who has
given birth to three children (and lost one to
miscarriage) I know first hand that a woman is never
weaker than after (just after) the birth of a
baby--she will never-ever need her husbands love and
support more than she does then, and not getting it or
feeling that you have is a deep painful wound that
never leaves you--it will be with you forever--as will
I suppose  the feeling of love you have DO get what
you need when u need it.

I did not get it, and I feel the pain still.

I said I feel how close his wife is to breaking, she
is under such stress just as he is, that they need
each other now more than they ever will....I said son,
when you get off this phone you find your wife. You
make her know she is the most important thing in life
at this moment in time--tell her put down the
baby--you put the other one down, you get somewhere
private and you wrap her in your arms and hold her.
Sit her down and tell her you love her, tell her she
has given you such happiness ...tell her in your own
words what it means to you that she has suffered so to
bring you such joy...how much you admire and love her,
that you have watched her pain as she struggled to
carry and deliver three babies, what a great job she
did and what it meant to you, how grateful you are
that God gave her to you to be your wife the mother to
your children....tell her that she is perfect as a
wife and as a mother--beautiful and perfect in your
eyes, that nothing she has done has caused those
babies to be in the hospital....NO...they are here and
doing so well because of her.  Let her see you know
what she is going thru....I told him she is going to
cry like you have never seen her cry--such will be the
relief and release--LET HER CRY---AND CRY AND CRY.
Cry with her...hold her and cherish her and comfort
her....reassure her in every way a man should his wife
and the mother of his children, then sit down hold her
hand and let her give you back the love and assurance
you need from her....tell her what you need...I said
what you do in the next half hr will form and shape
the rest of your married life....go to her now! Let
nothing stop u.....you need NEVER speak of it to
me....NEVER...but do it.

He was so choked up all he do was mumble I will....I
told him  I loved him his babies and his wife....that
he and the babies are fine...as is Chasity.

Cling to each other and believe...know that I am
praying for you.........would all of you who call on
the name of the Father pray with me for this
overstretched family....
