I was reading the comments that have been posted by JR Butcher's friends and family, and ran across the Sherrard family. I clicked on their blog and was shocked to find out that Katelyn had passed away while Kennedy was in the hospital.
Thinking back, it all makes sense now...a friend of mine said that she was going to a funeral that month, and she said that I had probably heard about her condition. I guess I was so numb and my brain was way too full of NICU news, that it wasn't making any sense to me. Now, I feel foolish because I knew exactly who she was talking about.

I sat and prayed for the family, and hoped that each day gets easier to cope with the loss of their precious daughter. I am sure that the roller coaster that they have been on has not stopped quite yet, and that some days are much harder than others.
I am counting my blessings every day, but when I read about battles that other families have gone through...it makes me feel even more that we have a huge miracle to be thankful for. God has been so awesome, and we are thankful that he has chosen to give us our beautiful Kennedy this year.
