David's daughter Lucretia sat on the bed, close, with David, holding hands, gazing at him, for many hours two days ago. Last night when David's sister and brother in law where here and the news came in that labor had started, there was a happy dance in the living room, including David who was very happy and excited that the baby was on it's way!! Today she gave birth to an 8 lb 4 oz baby boy around noon!! Everyone is doing well. Today David has been mostly sleepy and unresponsive, and didn't respond to the news that the baby had actually arrived. Will talk about it again tomorrow.
David really wanted to live to see this baby. Now he's still alive, and the baby's here. If you want, please send prayers that he's alert enough to greet this baby he waited for so long. If David was here, he'd probably say "Please envision me alert, peaceful and happy, holding my new grandson!" Group prayer has worked so well for David in the past, maybe it will help this time too.
Thanks. Tara
Hey! SOOO excited about the new grandson! Congrats to everyone, especially the proud parents and grandparents. We are thinking of everyone in Belfast hoping and praying that David gains the strength needed to hold that little angel. XO Mika and Kate
