Strange how this has struck me harder than I thought it would .. normally
I wouldn't have really thought anything about it.  But since the birth of my

daughter and what we went through with her .. I realise how lucky we were
to have none of the problems that the average premature baby can have 
(and she was 3 months early).

I wake up durring the night still and just watch her sleeping away.  I guess
I somewhat know what Al is going through right now ... I would probably
feel worse because of all that we have gone through with her.
