Thanks to Thumbwitch for inspiring the title of this new thread. Smile

I will do my very best to minimise my worrying about the future as none of us know what it holds. For now, it's all about celebrating Beatrice's life today, every day.

As always, please feel free to follow us on our journey, and thank you in advance for the wonderful advice I am bound to receive from fellow parents, of SN children or otherwise.

Here's to a positive, uneventful thread!

I know this won't come out right but I will try anyway.

All of us have children that aren't how we expected them to be or can't do things that the kid next door can do but I am not sure there is anyone else on here has a baby who has hundreds of strangers rooting for her and her family and who think about her every day.

(Apologies if I have offended anyone).

Sending love and hugs. I almost never pray but I pray for your daughter and your family. Your strength and love come shining out of your posts. You have three very blessed little girls.

Cup - it's my pleasure. Beatrice has changed me. She was born around the time of our church weekend away last year. We talked a lot about the need to pray more. Then I came back and you needed us and our prayers. The two things came together. Before Bea - would I start a prayer thead like that? Would I lift up my hands in prayer? I don't think so. I would pray but would I feel it like this? Beatrice has changed me. Her needs have been a huge gift to me. In praying for Beatrice I feel the strength of my faith. You and Bea have given me far more than I could ever give you.

Justfab You got it just right I think. Another stranger here who checks in on you every day with hope in my heart.

JustFab · 22/05/2012 14:57

Thanks Ben10NeverAgain. Beatrice is a true MN baby and I am very fond her of her.

ExitPursuedByABear · 22/05/2012 15:11

As are we all. Great words JustFab, and so true.

I've been away from this thread for a long time, accidentally Blush
Glad to hear that Bea is still fighting the good fight, even though it's sounding like a tough one for her still.

Love and hugs to all of you - you're all amazing, truly you are. xx

bishboschone · 22/05/2012 19:54

I'm not sure I have anything positive to say except I have followed bea 's journey . ' . Your strength is amazing and bea is truly blessed to have you and your family behind her .

trumpton · 22/05/2012 21:50

Ah cup just Ah and lots of love to you and your wonderful family .

Lovethesea · 22/05/2012 22:13

Another lurker who is praying for you all.

lisad123 · 22/05/2012 23:14

Praying for you all here too. I'm so looking forward to meeting you hopefully in July. You are allowed to main as much as you like, it doesn't make you a bad person, it makes you normal. It's so not fair what's happening to your family and beautiful Bea, your allowed to be angry with the situation and those that make it do much more difficult than it ever should be Angry Sad

Loads of thoughts love and prayers for you tonight x

moajab · 23/05/2012 00:11

Wishing you strength and a good day.

Morning everyone. Beatrice is still congested, meaning her heart rate is up, but we've just put her oxygen back down to its usual level and the consultant thinks she can go home tomorrow. Enjoy the sunshine everyone Smile

Hurrah for another victory! So glad that she's improved again, cup. Hope you have a lovely sunny day tomorrow for her going home (and FX everything continues to improve so she can!)

bigbluebus · 23/05/2012 10:56

Excellent news Cup. Hope you are able to get out and enjoy the sunshine with all your girls soon too.

annalovesmrbates · 23/05/2012 11:05

Yay for Bea! Hope she's out and you're all enjoying the sunshine soon. x
