Praying for Stellan

As some of you may or may not know, one of my favorite blogs that attributes to my "Not Me Monday's" is McMama's Blog who has 4 small children under the age of 4. My friend Jennifer, who also blogs got me interested in this blog and Stellan's journey as he was originally diagnosed to not survive to his due date, but miraculously did. And when he was born he was healthy, but 4 months later he has had a few problems with colds and respiratory issues. And now he is back in the hospital with SVT, which he was originally diagnosed with and his heart rate seems to be out of control. He is not someone I have ever met or ever will, but I have had a connection with his family through their blog. McMama has touched my heart and Baby Stellan's story has brought faith in me I never knew I had.

So what I am asking all of you is to take a minute and say a small prayer for Baby Stellan as he is fighting for his life. And even though I personally would be angry, McMama seems to have a calm that if God forbid I was ever in her situation I would have. I know a lot of people prayed for me this past year, and I just want to pass on the favor to their family who need all the support and prayers they can get.

On a related, but unrelated note. Once again Jennifer is also walking in the March of Dimes, March for Babies on May 9th for Baby Rocco if you all remember who was born March 12, 2008, 12 weeks early. If you are interested in seeing Rocco and reading his story, click here. Our family thinks this is a great cause and if you are looking for a charity to donate to this is something that has touched my heart, and I am sure Jennifer would appreciate any donations. Her blog is Mommy of Three and you can click on the March of Dimes icon to make a donation.

Sorry for those of you who were looking for another funny Nico story, but don't worry I am sure there are many more to come!

Until our next adventure........
