The Purdy Family

Post by dinan » Sat Oct 03, 2009 10:23 pm

Melanie went into pre-term labor at approximately 24 weeks on Thursday evening. Addison Grace was born at 8:45PM weighing 1 pound 4 oz and Gabriel Aaron was born at 9:15PM weighing 1 pound 5 oz, both babies in extremely critical condition. Despite strong prayers and hope, little Addy's lungs were not able to process oxygen and she passed away Friday evening. Little Gabe suffered a brain hemorrhage and passed away late Saturday afternoon.

Please keep them in your prayers in this extremely difficult time. It is hard to know what to say or what to do in such sadness but I know they appreciate all of your love and support as they deal with the loss of their children.

Words can not soften the blow to the heart,
only comfort the mind.

J&M,
Take strength in those around you.
Hold them close and lean on them for support.
You have more great people in your court than you will ever know.
We are all so sorry for your loss.

Wow, thats some heavy sadness to bear. Joe and Melanie, I can only share your sadness and share everyone else's prayers. I have no real idea how hard it must be for you, but my heart goes out to you. If there is anything I can to do help, consider my offer extended.
Take care, guys
