Baby Shout Out

This shout out is a little more difficult to write. It is for our friends', Paul and Michelle Kilgore, new baby:

Tadhg Michael Kilgore (Tadhg is pronounced like Tiger without the 'er'. )
Born at Mercy Hospital in Dubuque
1:22 pm on Friday, October 12, 2007

Poor little Tadhg was transferred to Iowa City Children's Hospital the night be was born because tests indicated he had a serious heart condition. At the Iowa City Hospital the doctors confirmed he that he had a disease called Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. He went in for his first surgery on Thurs Oct 18th. Unfortunately, Tadhg has not been progressing as well hoped and they have been unable to stitch him up since that surgery. They have now put Tadhg on the heart transplant list and are waiting.

Every day Tadhg, Paul, Michelle, their two year old, Julia, are in our thoughts and prayers, please put them in yours as well.

Here is a picture of Tadhg and Michelle when Tadhg was minutes old.
