Baby Stellan


I've started reading this blog and right now it's breaking my heart! I have been praying for baby Stellan and his family. Stellan has a heart problem and has been in the hospital for a while now with nothing really improving. He was diagnosed with it while his mom was still pregnant with him and they were told her would not make it. He is a miracle!

I look at this sweet little boy and wonder how is this fair, how can it be happening? While sometimes I complain or get frusterated when Jenna is being less than an angel, I also love her with all my heart and could not IMAGINE what I would do if she/we were faced with a challenge like this. Just thinking of it makes me want to leave work right now and go get her and hug her all day (which she would NEVER let me do anyway). He is hooked up to IV's, tubes, trying all sorts of medicine, and going through things I don't even want to imagine.
It makes me extremely grateful for the health of my family. Please say a few extra prayers for Stellan and his family!

This story is so sad! It truly does remind you to be grateful for what you have and enjoy life. Hope you and the family have a good weekend!

I am resisting reading that blog. I keep seeing people ask for prayers and tell a little about his story and it just breaks my heart. I hate to see babies and little kids sick. so sad!

I totally agree.

I found myself dumbfounded when I went there and saw the news.

Have been keeping him in my thoughts since!

Thanks so much for visiting on my SITS day :)

You Rock!

I feel the same way mama. I held onto my little one extra tight this weekend.
