Our close friends, the Walkers, had their triplets today. Please keep that whole family in your prayers as there was an emergency with the new mom’s bleeding. She’s in stable condition right now and we are praying for a speedy and healthy recovery. All three babies are doing wonderfully.

UPDATE: 1/24/06
The new mom is still in ICU, but is no longer on the ventilator. She had to have a hysterectomy to stop the bleeding and is now recovering. Please keep this family in your prayers, all five of them (all 5 of the family members, not all 5 of your prayers).

UPDATE: 1/24/06, evening
there are three pictures up on our flickr account since I had a hard time emailing them. I did not take the pictures of the triplets; I think a teacher-friend of the Walker’s took the pictures.

UPDATE: 1/26/06
The new mom was up and walking today and even had enough strength to shower. She’s been visiting her babies and trying to get all three of them to nurse, as she’s been having the lactation nurses in her room to help her as she got a late start to nursing.
