More about the Amazing McMullan Babies

Thank you so very much for your interest, love and prayers for my friend and her little ones whom many of you do not even know!  This young couple is striving to model their faith before countless medical personal, and their 2 young daughters,  in the most stressful of situations and yet God has sustained them through the prayers of so many!  I received this report from Jenny Kate a day or so after the post below:

"I've just returned from the NICU where our babies, --including Lucy and Duncan -- are looking much better today, Praise the Lord!  The doctors aren't sure what caused the virus like symptoms, and we're getting conflicting reports about the level of risk from here on out; but they are agreed that both babies are improving.  They've started Duncan back on his feedings, though at a greatly reduced rate, and they've taken all four babies off of isolation -- which means we can hold them again without wearing masks, gloves, and gowns.

Paul and I reminded each other over and over yesterday that these children belong to the Lord and not to us, and that His will for them is good.  But our hearts still ached with worry and with desire for their health in the last 36 hours, and your prayers and messages were the greatest gift we could have.  I cannot explain the blessing of knowing that people who love us and people who don't even know us are approaching the throne on grace on behalf of our children.  Thank you."



Thank you again, for your loving prayers for my friend.
