Jude needs our prayers

Today we talked to the doctor and it looks as if Hazel is doing better than Jude at this point. It is typical for female preemies to do better than males (which the females like to say is because "guys are wimps"). However, this is surprising in our case, considering the way our twins looked a couple days ago. Jude has a brain bleed on both sides, but we're waiting for a reading from the radiologist to determine the significance of it. We can all be in prayer for that.

Also, they've got both of them under the lights now, "working on their tan" and/or trying to get the biliruben (sp.?) level down (or up, I can't remember which). Overwhelmed with concerning details yet? That's not even the half of it! Life in the NICU...

So many people that you don't even know are praying for you. I know you all can feel it though.
