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

My family will be praying for you and your good wife, that the Lord would comfort you, and heal you, and bless you in abundance when you are ready.

May the LORD bless you and keep you;

May the LORD make his face shine upon you and be gracious to you;

May the LORD turn his face toward you and give you peace.

I am so sorry for your and your wife's loss. I will be keeping the both of you and your two departed angels in my thoughts and prayers. I can only wish I had the words to comfort you more at this time.

For now, all I can recommend is that you comfort each other and allow yourselves to be comforted by the kindness of others. Again, I am so very sorry.
