On Thursday morning last week my Group made little quilts to gift to the premature baby unit at our local hospital. On Saturday I learned friends in our town had become grandparents - far too early at 28 weeks - to a tiny premature little boy, Nathan ( Gift from God).
Nathan was actually born very late on Thursday evening, just a few hours after our Workshop.
I had completed three little quilts by then so decided to gift one of them directly to tiny Nathan.
I also added two lemon premature baby hats I had knitted some months ago, intending to pop those into the hospital with my next lot of little quilts.
I chose this bright frog quilt to gift to Nathan and hope and pray he pulls through.
At present he is holding his own but is very tiny at around 2lbs in weight. I have seen photos of him and he is unbelievably tiny, fitting into his Daddy's two hands cupped beside each other.
Please hold baby Nathan in your prayers.
Your kind heart will help. That is so tiny. My thoughts are with you all especially Nathan's family. Your quilt is made with love and will help keep him warm... xxx
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely quilt to welcome a special gift from God. I'll be sending prayers that he continues to thrive.
