    Yes.. My daughter, Liam's grandma, talked with the people at the Colo. Springs Children's Hospital. They need them..I make crib size. (They do have to be washed, etc) They have 55 beds for sick babies and have places for family.. I talked with a lady there she said they can use them. and My daughter Julie said this week they needed some more. I will get the address to send them to and post it..
    Thank you so much for your prayers! I have lots of grandkids and the more we have the more I realize how precious each one of them are!!

    I just called and found out that the NICU where our baby is, needs quilts about 24X 30, 30X40. They use small quilts and matching sheets (or receiving blankets) on the beds and little eye covers about 6 x 12. usually double thickness. They make the units as cute and pretty as they can and if the families want to take the quilts they let them.. The quilts and blankets are soft and pretty.. They are washed a lot and have to be replaced frequently..
    This is the address to send the quilts to.
    Children's Hospital memorial for children
    NICU
    1400 Boulder Street
    Colorado Springs, Colo. 80909
    Money donations is appreciated also. My daughter says they need some new equipment like warming beds..so if you would like to give money I will be finding out where to send that also..
    Our little guy is having a hard time but is finally smiling again a little. It is so hard to not be able to do more for these little troupers!
    Thank you for your prayers!!!

    He is absolutely beautiful. I hope Alice that you post in the category here that allows you to ask for things for charity because I bet you will get lots of donations. People just need to know about it and something for babies in the hospital.. how much better can you do than to keep a child comfortable in an awful situation.

    Linda, Thank You! here is the account for Him. Miracles4Liam.com I was praying and asking God how to help yesterday when my daughter Liam's great aunt, Amy came in She said Mom, we can do this..So she has set this up and 100% for His care. Jacob had not even shared all of what they had been going through..
    The NICU needs new warming beds, my younger daughter, Liam's grandma. told me.
    I love all your comments and am praying for your healing also!
