Dearest People,

Thank you for your prayers and emotional support. Unfortunately, after four days of touch and go, the twins were delivered at less than 23 weeks. While they survived but a few hours, I nonetheless thank God for the blessing of that short time.

My wife endured immense pain and discomfort, as well as emotional ups and downs, for four days. She put in an effort that can be described only as heroic and selfless. This day she is my hero.

Again, thank you all, and if I can't find the effort to thank each and every one of you right now, please understand that it isn't for lack of my appreciation.

Bud

It's hard for us to understand. But sometimes the Lord has a perfect place for us without the trials and tribulations of the mortal world. I will pray for your hearts to mend rapidly.

God Bless you and your dear wife.

David

Your babies left this life with tiny wings to play at the feet of the Lord.

May God place His healing hand over the emptiness in your hearts and grant you comfort and peace. You will be reunited as a family once again. I am so very sorry for your loss.
