Update

I feel like God has revealed some big things to me in the past 24 hours. One day I hope to share more about those things. Sometime in the the next few days, I will be sharing more details about our time in the hospital and about meeting the baby boy we named Joshua Dailey Minor. For now, I just going to post the emails we sent to update family and friends.


UPDATE # 1 TUESDAY MORNING

It actually has been a pretty rough morning for Jennifer. After a restful night she had a bad reaction to the pain medication they gave her at about 7am. She also had a significant drop in her blood pressure which also caused her problems and required treatment.

However, after those two issues were resolved God blessed her with a very quick delivery of the baby at about 9:30am. We were preparing for sometime tonight if at all. So it was much earlier than we planned. It was a boy, as we were suspecting. We named him Joshua Dailey. We are so relieved that the delivery went so smoothly. An answered prayer, praise God!! She still has some issues that need to be resolved and this may still require surgery so be in prayer about that. But we are so blessed we are able to see and hold the baby.

Jennifer welcomes visitors.

To God be the glory.

We love you,
Wesley and Jennifer


UPDATE # 2 WEDNESDAY NIGHT

We are home. Yesterday was almost a blur. So much happened and so fast. The surgery Wesley referred to was a D&C, which I did end up having yesterday afternoon.

Many have asked if we plan to have any type service for Joshua as we did for Samuel and Isaiah. We have planned a small grave side service. However since our kids are a little older this time and understand so much better what has occurred, we plan to have our immediate family only. We feel this will put us in a better position to help them understand and deal the grief they are experiencing.

Thank you so much for each and every call, email, visit, kind word, card, thought, and prayer you all have offered on our behalf. God has heard and answered these prayers. We are doing well and happy to be home.

Love,
Jennifer


I wanted to post those updates here because this blog is my journal more than anything else.

God really answered our prayers in allowing me to be able to give birth to Joshua, and He threw in the really quick part just because He can! We are still praying to get the results and some answers from genetic testing. We should get the results in 3 or 4 weeks. As I get time in the next few days, I will share more details. This is it for tonight.

Love,
Jennifer
