Hi girls, I haven't posted in what feels like forever. I hope you are all well. I lurk sometimes and think of you all the time!
I know many of you will remember mbjmaybebaby (Meghan) - she posted with us on IF and had her miracle triplets 1 year ago this month. As many of you know she has been battling cancer off and on for the last 5 years. After numerous surgeries in the last year, the most recent to remove 3 tumors from her brain, she has gone into a coma.
They don't expect her to wake up, no decisions have been made but they think after her Dad arrives from out of state they will take her off life support.
Please pray for her family, most of all her husband and her babies who will never know their amazing mom.

My thoughts and praryers are with Meghan and her family (especially those sweet babies). This is so heartbreaking.
I followed her blog and hadn't seen any updates in a long time. I can't even imagine what her husband is going through right now.
