While Jana is sleeping, I wanted to write a quick note of thanks. I read to Jana the comments that are left on the blog every day and it brings a sense of support and encouragement that she so desperately needs in this time. We have so many wonderful friends out there in the world, both whom we have met and those who have touched us only through the Internet. Your positive thoughts and prayers are making a difference in our lives and we want everyone to know that.
To our family who are here right now: You are the reason that we have tried so hard to have a family of our own. The wonderful parents, siblings, nieces, and nephews that have touched our lives leaves a huge yearning for us to become a family like ours. Our families have dropped everything in there lives and have come to Kansas City to be here in support of us in the most stressful, painful, worrisome, roller coaster ride that Jana and I have ever experienced. Their help, both physically and mentally have given both of us the strength to keep fighting for our little angels.
Our hospital room smells like a florist shop. There are flowers everywhere and it brightens Jana's mood to see them.
To the staff at Overland Park Regional Medical Center. It seems that everyone, from the people that clean out the trash in the room, to the multitude of doctors and nurses that we have seen are pulling for us and want to try to save our little angels. We are very blessed to have found this hospital, our doctors, and staff here.
To my wife: It is in the toughest times that you see the true character of person. My wife is a woman that should be cataloged in history books and legends and songs as a hero. She has been through the gamut of wondering, waiting, rejoicing, denial, physical anguish, self doubt, etc. Not just in these last 8 days but in the last year and half. Our struggle with infertility has been monumental and it continues today. Our little angels are so lucky to have her as their mom. I am truly humbled by her strength, courage, hope, and faith that she displays every day. She is my everything.
It's 1:27 pm and the clock seems to get slower and slower. Thanks again to everyone and keep up the thoughts and prayers
Just stop...

Just wanted you to know that I'm praying for you all. Pat, you don't know me but I'm so glad that Jana found a wonderful man like you. She deserves it. I'm so sorry to hear about baby Reagan. I'll be sending you all my prayers and love.
Pat,
As corny as it sounds, I think about you and Jana going on a date together to the Childress Homecoming and sitting in the stands next to me. When I think back to that time, I remember thinking you were the guy for Jana! A guy who will go to a high school football game just to be with the girl down the breezeway in the apartment complex is a good guy! :)
I know Jana could not be going through this without the support and love you give her daily. You are her rock.
In my prayers,
Ginger
You have two fighters in there, taking after their big sister and hanging on! I'm praying for each small step that will lead you to the timely birth of your beautiful daughters. Pat, you are an amazing husband. Yes, you are lucky to have Jana in your life, but know that she is very blessed to have you, too. I know that you and God are keeping her going. Jana, I so want to be there for you to support you as you always support me. I love you so much.
Just wanted to let you know that you are never far from my thoughts. You are both just so amazing as you face this struggle with such strength. I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers. Continue to rely on each others strength
Even though I have never met the two of you, you seem to be very strong people. I look up to you for that. I continue to pray and think of you daily. I even pray when I roll over in the middle of the night. God bless the two of you and your three little angels. Baby Reagan is continuing to watch over the 4 of you...God Bless!!!
We are praying for you and your family! You just keep hanging in there!!! And the steroids will not make your bum hurt much! Your other two daughters have a guardian angel watching over them.
