Dear Preemie Mom!

This is the note I left behind in the book (inside the room I stayed in for months) at the Ronald McDonald House to encourage the next Mom on 4/22/17).

Hello & bless your heart if you're here. I know it's rough already but "Let Not Your Heart Be Troubled" (John 14:1) Have Faith & Trust God!

My name is Ebony and I gave birth to my micro-preemie "DJ" on 12/15/16 after being transported to Vidant on 12/14/16. My water broke at home and DJ came at just 26 weeks gestation, weighing only 790 grams (1 lb 12 oz). It was a roller coaster ride of emotions and one difficult but miraculous journey. To God be the glory, we are finally going home after four months and one week. 

My advice to you -  PRAY WITHOUT CEASING! God is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or even think (Ephesians 3:20). So lean on Jesus and hang in there because joy does comes in the morning. You will make it! May God bless and keep your family in His awesome & divine care. Be strong, patient and kind to others as they are fighting some type of battle as well. 

Take great care & I wish you well ❤

Sincerely, 

Ebony & Baby DJ (4 mths & 9 lbs)

P.S. Smile, Jesus loves you and so do I 😍
