Hi friends! My nephew Jon and his wife Hannah had our precious Thea Gabrielle July 22nd. Our precious girl was not due until October so she has a lot of "growing" still to do before she can come home with Mommy & Daddy. Due to the severity of Hannah's delivery, they were transported to Little Rock, in hopes of keeping Baby Thea in as long as possible but God had bigger plans.

Little Rock is about 2.5 hours from where Jon & Hannah live in Paragould, AR. This is going to put a considerable strain on mommy & daddy to get back and forth to see their girl and also work. They are expecting Thea to be in NICU through October, any amount you can share to help with an already stressful time for Jon & Hannah will be beyond appreciated.

We will keep updates on here and we have a fb page for updates and prayer request @ Thea Gabrielle-our NICU Warrior. Thank you all so much - I know my friends always have me when it counts!

From Theas Mommy & Daddy ....

Meet Thea Gabrielle Hamilton. Born July 22nd at 4:21a.m. weighing 1lb 14oz and 13 inches long.

Our little warrior has been through the ringer this last week. What started as a trip to the ER on Saturday for high blood pressure turned into our first stay in the ICU. We overcame influenza B (yes it still exists). We had our first ambulance ride all the way to Little Rock on Wednesday. As hard as we tried to keep her cooking just a little bit longer, God had other plans for us. We welcomed her to the world Thursday morning with an amazing team of Dr's and nurses taking care of us. It looks like we'll be spending plenty of time here in Little Rock as our little Thea needs time to grow and get stronger.

There's lots of unknowns as we start down the path for this journey. We ask that you keep us in your thoughts and prayers. Also give us time to process and handle everything. We would love to get a FB group started to keep everyone updated on progress and prayer requests, but everything takes time. For now just know that mom is doing well and so is Thea. We have been in good hands. Our little warrior is small but mighty
