Test Results

We got the test results back from the blood test. Brittany's white blood cell count was normal. Good news.

Reed did arrive last night...Brittany's Parents and her sister drove him the 900 miles to see us (God bless them). I met them last night outside the hospital. I called Reed's name from about 30 yards away and a huge grin crept across his face. He is an amazing little boy.

Right now Reed is taking a nap in the hospital room with Brittany and I. Later this afternoon, I am going to take him to the circus. Ringling Brothers just happens to be at the Verizon Center in DC. Another God Thing (I like to refer to those times that are just too coincidental as "Its a God Things"). We have had many "God Things" since we have been in DC.

Just wanted to give everyone an update.

Brittany and Beau--

We are thankful for the good news on Brittany's test results. I know you are excited to have Reed with you. We hope you have fun at the circus. I'm sure the Tigers will be the best part -- War Eagle.

We will put you on our small group prayer list when we meet this afternoon.

You are on our minds and in our hearts.

Jeff and Laurie Helms

Hi, Beau. It's Mrs. Parker from back in the old MA days of Biology and soccer. I just learned about what's going on from another teacher and just wanted you to know that ALL of you are in my thoughts and prayers and will continue to be in the days ahead.Be strong and know that lots of folks are pulling for you!

Beau and Brittany,
I am freinds with your parents ( Janie and Billy) through Sunday School. I am praying for you and Gaines daily and your parents.
I must share with you that 18 years ago, at this time my memebranes ruptured at 30 weeks and I was in Saint Vincent's for 30days and delivered at 35 weeks, a healthy girl! She has been a joy to us, always. I do know, how nerve-racking this can be. I hate you are not in Birmingham, but God will work this out!
God will protect you and work many works through you.

In His Name,
Susan Sheffield

Brittany and Beau! Lauren just forwarded me this blog and I am so glad to be in touch. Please know that we are praying heartily here in South Carolina. I am so thrilled to read the good news!

Hey Brittney and Beau,

Please know that Eli and I are praying for you. We have prayed so much at night that yesterday when we were saying grace to eat dinner, Eli said "and pray for Beau mommy". He has no clue what that means but he has heard it so much. You all are in my thoughts and prayers. Love Brandi
