Little Will is Doing Much Better!

Will seems as happy as we are to have him free of the ventilator. Mom and Daddy get to hold him.

Things are looking much better for William today. No more ventilator and many of the other tubes that have been keeping him comfortable and out of the arms of his mom and dad. Yep, Christina and Mike were able to hold him today! What a relief to them and all of us that Will is doing so much better. So many of our prayers have been answered and we are so grateful to our Father in Heaven for his mercy and love. He truly has blessed us and watched over this sweet and special spirit! We are so happy that he is improving quickly and doing so well!

William Clark Hale

Will right after he was born at Logan Regional

Our newest grandson, William Clark Hale, was born Tuesday, September 29th, at 2:00 a.m. at the Logan Regional Hospital. He weighed 6 pounds 11 ounces and was 19 inches long. He began to have respiratory problems (pulmonary hypertension) and was put in NICU. He was only there about 22 hours and then was life-flighted to McKay Dee Hospital NICU for more intensive treatment. He has really struggled and has been listed as critical. Mike and Christina has been staying with him since he was admitted there. What a trial for them and the family. It has been so hard to see such a tiny, little boy hooked up to so many machines and tubes. But we saw great improvement yesterday after several "set-backs". He is strong and is such a fighter! We have certainly seen some miracles and we recognize our Heavenly Father's love and blessings for our sweet little one. We are grateful for those blessings and also for the many family members and friends of Mike and Christina. Everyone has rallied around them and shown so much love and support. We are so blessed!
