Can I have a couple of prayers?

Great news mate. My daughter was born last October and had to spend one night in ICU. It was the longest night of my life and I wouldn't wish that worry on any human being. It's that awful feeling of wanting to do something for the little baby but not being able to.

Thank God, my little girl is fit and healthy now and I did send more than my fair share of prayers up that night.

Hope all goes well for your baby and that you can get him home soon.

You and your lady will sleep easier tonight.

And congratulations, by the way, on the arrival of your new son. 8)

excellent news, mate. pleased for you.

i was born 9 weeks premature with my umbilical cord wrapped around my neck. it didn't look good at all, and i was extremely underweight and small, but i managed to work my way out of it just fine. you may argue that i lived up to be an ugly bald short arsed ladyboy, but that has nothing to do with my birth :lol:

and as a guy who sold lung ventilators (respiratory machines that your son is connected to) and gave training on how to use them for over three years, i can tell you that those machines are awesome and leave no trace of respiratory issues on the kids' lungs, unlike machines from a couple of decades ago.

all the best to #5 junior :barscarf:

Charlie actually made our shortlist of 3 but it didn't really suit this ones face. So we plumped for Oscar tonight.

Oh and swimming 5k a day, do you live on an island so he has to breast stroke it into school every day? You could invest in a boat or something. :lol: 8) :wink:

Good to hear #5. Hope you get to take him home soon mate, where his brothers can gently break the news to him that daddy is obsessed with tight ends, wide receivers & helmet-on-helmet action.
