Day 141

The past few days have been relatively good for Miss Bella. Her sats have improved and her heart rate is not so high. Most importantly she is alert, spunky and showing us that infamous attitude that has assisted in bringing her this far. Her eyes are bright and she is comfortable. It seems like some rest and down time have been what she has needed. Not to mention some great care from our incredible primaries and staff at Centennial.

Today at 3 pm all of her Dr's are meeting to discuss a care plan. We have also been doing our homework so we will hear what they have to say and prayerfully decide where we go from here. We know there is hope no matter what we are told so all decisions will be made on that knowledge alone. We pray today that we are led to the path leading to the right answers. We pray that whomever handles her care from here forward sees those same bright eyes and hope for a quality of life. We feel strongly that she can feel the energy and attitudes of those caring for her and we cannot allow her to be taken care of by anyone that does not have the same faith in her that we do or that has given up. In the past few days we have reached out to many, hearing stories much like Bella's. All of the stories have something in common- the parents did not give up and they trusted in the Lord.

"The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged" (Deuteronomy 31:8)

Much love to you all

  1. "We feel strongly that she can feel the energy and attitudes of those caring for her and we cannot allow her to be taken care of by anyone that does not have the same faith in her that we do or that has given up."

    I also believe this with firm conviction. I will continue with the prayers you ask for.

  2. I hope all went well in the meeting with the doctors and that you feel good about the direction they want to go with Bella. I pray that you remain strong and uplifted. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Philippians 4:13 and remember the Lord is also your shepherd and there when you need protection, guidance and rest..."He maketh me to lie down in green pastures, he restoreth my soul."
    Love, Lee Ann

  4. Dear Lord we humble ourselves to you once again and ask for the strength and your guidence as we pray whole heartedly that you hold Bella close, breathe into her tiny body and grow the tissue she needs to develope her lungs to the capacity to go on in this world and show us all the beauty of your love and the many miracles you perform thru your child and angel sweet Bella. Hold the Cobbs and keep them strong even when the times are hard and their hearts want to break. Pick them up, carry them in your ever loving arms. Give them the rest they need as they make their way each day to the NICU. Provide for them everything they need both mentally and physically but most importantly spiritually . God Bless this family and all whom have a hand lead only by you in Bella's care and God bless the little children for they are the closest thing on this earth to heaven. AMEN
