Howdy guys, I'm writing this to all of you who pray. My wife's step-sister has a baby who is in the hospital in real trouble tonight. This child, Parker, nearly drowned in the bathtub earlier, and the doctors say that it will be a miracle if he survives. Please pray for him, and also my wife's family. As you can imagine, they are all really shaken up by this. Thank you friends.
Geez, I'm sorry, man. You all, especially Parker, will be in my thoughts. Good luck with everything, hope everything turn out alright.
What a terrible thing to happen to someone so young. I wish for the best for you and your family.
That's awful. I hope Parker and his family get that miracle. He's in my thoughts.
My extreme appologies. Please keep us updated(if you feel up to it). My prayers and thoughts are with you and yours.
Oh no. I'm so sorry, Benton. He's in my fervent prayers.
Sending good thoughts your way....
My best wishes.
I hope that miracle happens. They do, sometimes. I hope one will here.
Here's hoping it all works out for the best. I'll say a prayer for him and the family.
Dude, I hope everything is alright for the little one :(
sending out a prayer buddy.
My thoughts go to your family BG.
Sending prayers
My thoughts, hopes, and well wishes.
Thank you all for your prayers and thoughts. We still have no word. This is really hard on my wife, the not knowing. I maintain that, in this case, no news might be good news. It means that the little guy is still alive. For my part, I'm just trying to stay busy.
I wish there was more we could do than tell you I hope for the best. I hope all turns out well.
We got some news a while ago, and it isn't good. My wife is flying home on Thursday, likely to prepare for a funeral.
Oh no... Benton, I'm so sorry to hear this. Good luck with... with everything.

Hey guys, all of this, especially the above, has meant a lot to me. Please keep my wife's family in your prayers, especially her step-father and step-sister. This is really hitting them hard, as you'd imagine.
:( I'm sorry to hear that. My most sincere condollences. He is with God now, and out of pain. May God bless your family.
I am deeply sorry for you and your family's loss Benton
My condolences to you and your family Benton.
(http://home.graffiti.net/stumpyanker:graffiti.net/emoticons/emoticon-cry.gif) Sorry, Benton.
My wife called me tonight, and it hit me pretty strong. Things with the estranged husband's family are really, really bad...and apparently Parker's mother was not just unstable, but over medicating...it is a terrible situation. However...it seems that this child may have been spared an utterly miserable life, given the disposition of his parents. That thought is helping my wife and I understand what has happened. Thank you all once again for your prayers and support. I love this place, and it means a great deal to me.
Benton, I've been lurking on this thread and I regret that I have not chimed in sooner. My deepest condolences to you and your family.
Aw man Benton, I just saw this thread...geeze man, there is simple no words to help heal the pain of losing a small child right now, except condolences. One thing will for sure though is time will heal. As you can already see there is gonna be alot of different emotions surrounding this, but as time passes things will get better.......trust me, I know.
This is dreadful news Benton. My deepest condolences.
Sincerest condolences. Haven`t seen this earlier. There`s nothing much to say, just hang in there.
My deepest condolences Benton, to you and to your family.
