Wyatt James Roberts

Today we've received some cautiously good news, they've been able to ween Wyatt's oxygen percent down significantly and all of his other vitals have actually improved or at least held steady so he appears to be fighting the good fight.  Keep praying for him and the medical staff taking care of him, he's a long way from safe.

As you all know we received devastating news early this morning we lost our beautiful daughter after 74 very difficult hours of life.  I think at this point I'm writing selfishly, because I need it for my sanity.  The outpour of love and words of encouragement we've received today has been overwhelming and I cannot thank you enough.  Wyatt's still in a battle and Rachel and I are currently in a tough spot emotionally, she's tougher than I am and is handling it better, to be honest I'm a basket case.  I was the proud parent of the most beautiful little girl you've ever seen and I miss her to the point of sickness.  The only thing that has gotten me through is the support of family and friends.

Thank you for all that you're doing please continue to pray we truly appreciate everything!

    Love YOU All, Janet
