Many of you have heard that my wife was expecting triplets. Tues night she went into preterm labor at only 20 weeks. We lost Joshua Ronald at 11:55 am wed. Far too young for survival, The other two are doing fine, but the doctors are skeptical. I need a miricle, your prayers will be highly coveted-Chris

I'm heading back to the hospital now after a few hours of rest-its amazing how things become so less important at times like these-cars, houses, etc. thank you all for your kind words-you have no idea how much of an impact it has-i will keep you all posted-Chris

I was anxiously awaiting the birth of my next child until my wife mis-carried about 2 1/2 weeks ago. When all is fantastic, sometimes life has a way of kicking you in the head. I said a prayer for you and you're family and will say another tonight when I go to bed. Godspeed my friend!

Chris

I am the resident joker here, but, I want you to know that I know that God has plans to prosper you, your spouse and you two babies. Joshua Ronald was needed by God for a great task that you will learn of "By and By". That is the saying that my 98 year old Grandmother uses when she can't see God's plan in this world we live in. Remember the fellow that wrote "It is well with my soul" and his tremendous loss all those many years ago. I know that it cannot minimize your loss and we here share jointly in your grief and the joy of the new birth.

Blessings to you, you wife and two newborns.

Chris-

I am very sorry for your family's loss. As you said "It's times like this it really puts life into perspective. Nothing else matters when compared to your family and health. Be grateful for your wife's health and the two miracles you have created. From my family to your's - Our thoughts are with in these tough yet joyous times.

I'll be praying. I just have to say I totally understand what you're saying when you say your priorities change rather quickly. My older son had cancer when he was 13 and my world went into "total lock up into the wall!" The short story is that the power of prayer and trust in God brought about a miracle, and he is now 21 and doing well. When we live life by God's laws we have His promise that we will be together again!!! :yes: We all need to keep our focus on what's really important! I struggle at times myself. God bless!!!

... your family.. Im not a religious type of guy, but I do believe in paryer and faith. There are not many people to support us when we need it most. People have there own crosses to bear.. That being said. I will ask that guy or gal up there to give you the strength to handle this.. It would be my wish for you to allow all of us here to take away even just a little bit of your pain.. An unknown friend.. be strong for your family,they are counting on you.... phil

Very sorry to hear of your loss.

Miracles do happen - My youngest was born a preemie, shortly after his birth he needed to be airlifted to a large medical facility, and his doctors were very skeptical. He's now 18 months, and everyday we have him is a miracle.

My prayers are for you and your family.

thank you all for your prayers and support

today Alyssa (wife) is doing well- it's her birthday today- she is off all meds. the other two babies are doing well and my request of prayer is that they stay put until they are ready to be born. many miraculous things have taken place in the midst of tragety. The Doctor called her friends at Harvard to bounce this off of them, they don't understand and can't believe she is still pregnet, God is Good! -Chris

We are not out of the woods yet-but things are looking good.-Chris:thumbsup:

Absolutely devastating news Chris. When I read your update tonight - I hoped for the best - and my heart just broke for you and your wife. No words can comfort the both of you in this time of darkness. All I can extend are my very deepest sympathy and my constant prayers that very soon you will both find the light again. May God hold those precious little soles tight to him and continue to bless and guide you though a difficult trip back.

Chris, I cannot express to you how sorry we are for your devastating loss. As I sat here struggling to get through that sentence, I cannot find the right words to offer enough comfort or support in this incredibly tough time. My wife and I send our deepest and most sincere condolences with the hope you and your wife can find your way through this. You will remain in our thoughts and we will be sure to pray for your family tomorrow at Mass.

Chris, I am praying for comfort and peace for you and your wife. I will not and can not even try to relate or understand your loss. My wife is a NICU nurse and she also sends her prayers for you both. Draw close to friends and family and most importantly our Lord, have them help carry some of this burden. Today your babies are with Jesus. Greg

Chris, May the Lord Jesus Christ be with you all the days of yours, your wife's, and your childrens's life. May the Holy Spirit camp around you and guide you in all that you say and do.

My real name is Marcos Once Vientitres which in english is Mark 11:23. I was named that because I was born with a broken callor bone and had no function of my right arm plus I was cross eyed. My father being a man of God prayed with the scripture Mark 11:23 and emidiatly I was made perfect. I have never none any complications of my body since. Keep your eyes on the Lord and trust him. Your son is in Heaven sitting at the right hand side of the Father.

Hey Guys,

jsut wanted to thank everyone for all the kind words. Alyssa is doing very well, it's nice to have her home, and get on with some sort of normal life, it will take time. The '68 needs a ton of block sanding (good brainless diversion) soo... things will get better-thanks again-Chris
