Default hope please

My aunt received news today that her friend's baby was early. So early they don't think the little one is going to make it. They're taking him off the respirator tonight to see if he can breathe on his own. There isn't much hope since the umbilical cord was kinked for at least two weeks prior to his very early birth. They fear that if he does make it he'll be brain dead.

I'm not asking for prayers since I'm not going to assume anyone is/n't religious so all I'm asking for is hope.

Personally, I hate God if he exists. All he does is make people live in pain and misery, and we're taught to accept it all because hey, only hundred years of being in pain and accepting it with a smile and being awesome about it no matter what and you'll go to heaven! It be awesome! He loves you! That is why he makes you miserable and life is so unfair is because he loves you.

...


Sorry. Not what your expecting. That being said, I am sending whatever hope you need that baby not only makes it, but isn't brain dead. Miracles do happen. Sometimes your even stronger for it in the end. So Plaidman is hoping all he can for ye. K?

Okay
Hope
I was born at 5 months - They gave me a 30% of living. 3% without some major form of "retardation" as they used to call it. I would be blind, and deaf and a burden on my family.
I can see
I can hear
I have a high I.Q.
I have a job and a college degree and though I have lung issues I am pretty darn fab!
If the baby wants to fight and live it will.

There is hope!

*gathers great big bundles of hope* Here Shanky, lots of hope that everything will work out. The bub has made it this far, so there's still a chance that he'll be okay

Sadly the little one didn't make it. We just found out. Thank you everyone for your good thoughts.
