There but by the grace of God go we....

Robbie and I would like to ask a favor of all of our friends and family who keep up with our blog. Some of you have noticed the link to the right for Kayleigh's blog. Kayleigh is a fellow preemie who was born almost 6 months ago in Charlotte at CMC. Kayleigh's story hit close to our hearts because she was born at 28 weeks...not far off from Campbell's gestational age at birth. She was only 1 pound and has had to overcome many burdens that Campbell avoided.

We have been in contact with her parents and keep up with her through their blog. They have been very inspirational in their strength and courage. This week Kayleigh has taken a turn for the worse and they very well may lose her soon.

To make their current situation even sadder, Kayleigh's parents are realtors who have been financially devastated both by the current market and the time they have had to spend in the NICU with Kayleigh. At the urging of their blog readers, they have put a donation link on their blog. I would love it if some of us could support them. I understand money is tight around this time, so if a monetary donation isn't possible, I would ask for your prayers for them during this tough time.

I encourage you all to read their blog. I promise your hearts will be touched. The title of this post sums up our feelings...

I started reading their blog after seeing it on yours, and I am hooked, I am also praying for a happy ending. I am going to help anyway I can as well.
