The late, great Jake Hess sang a song that stated,
"Prayer is the key to Heaven, but Faith unlocks the door".

I know the road of life isn't easy, and I am not even going to
pretend that I know all you are going through.

BUT, I do know the ONE that does.

May the LORD always keep you, and be your guide.

Unless they have changed it, the families don't have to pay to stay at the Ronald McDonald house, maybe a donation because the Childrens Miracle Network and groups like that pay for the families.

Still remember this family. The mother that is 28 wks pregnant is not doing good at all. they called today and said they was gonna have to take the baby because her heart is failing but they haven't took it yet. they said her (mother)'s heart isnt working but 35 % so they really need prayers. THey have said don't even know that the mother will make it if they have to take the baby. So thanks for all the prayers and keep em coming.

UPDATE ON FAMILY...THIS WAS POSTED ON THE CARINGBRIDGE SITE TONITE FOR THE BABIES:

Just a short note to let everyone know about today. Riley got to come home (or at least to the Ronald Mcdonald House) around lunch today. Changing diapers and every three hour feedings have never been so much fun. Erin was at the RMH for the homecoming, too. She wants to do everything for her little sis. As great as having Riley with the family was, it was sad to know Kiley is by herself at the NICU. She's had those long awaited poopie diapers, but the doctors say she has too much stomach secretions coming from her ot tube to start any feedings. Maybe tomorrow. Overall, it's been a good day. Thank you God for everything. Good Nite! Margena


AINT GOD GOOD? ALSO ON THE MOTHER THAT WAS 28 WKS PREGNANT WITH THE VIRAL MENENGITIS SHE GOT TO GO HOME ON SAT. THE DRS TOLD THEM HE HAS NEVER HAD A PATIENT IN THE SHAPE SHE WAS IN GET THAT AND LIVE . THAT IT WAS A MIRACLE. BUT APPARENTLY HE MUST NOW BELIEVE AND KNOW WHAT OUR GOD CAN & WILL DO. THANKS FOR THE PRAYERS AND THANK YOU JESUS FOR LISTENING TO OUR PRAYERS. GOD BLESS!

Sorry I haven't given an update on these babies....I had been sick for 2 wks and have had alot going on.
UPDATE:
Riley is still doing good. But Kiley is back in Atlanta...shes not doing good @ all. they said something is going on with her liver and they wanted to take part of it out. Shes been back in Atlanta for about 3 wks now. The parents said something about having her moved from the hospital shes in cause shes getting worser there other than better. Just pray that GOD'S WILL will be done in this baby's life. and Pray for the families to accept whatever his WILL is. I saw Riley on Friday and shes looking good! the Mom had told me then that Kiley was supposed to come home today if she kept doing good then they got the call that she wasnt and they had to go back. thanks and GOD BLESS!!!

PRAY PRAY My Uncle just called me and said that Kiley isn't doing good @ all and they not expecting her to make it. They needed to reverse the surgery they did on her and can't because she is so weak. I know that GOD'S WILL is gonna be done , just pray that the family will be able to accept his will ! I know it has to be hard on them to stand there looking @ her and knowing there is nothing they can do but PRAY! thanks ahead of time and GOD BLESS!

Kiley is back in Atl....She has a tear in her intestine and it is leaking in her body. They don't know how bad it is because her body temperature has dropped really low and they have her under the temperature lamp....Her Grandpa told me she is losing the weight she has gained and she really needs alot of prayers. Only GOD can heal her if thats His WILL! her Grandpa said this made the 7 or 8th time that she has got so bad and always pulled through. Thanks for the prayers and :GBY:



Also to all the Moms!
