Blessing #1…Tresa

May 18th, 2009

As I said previously, I want to start sharing with you guys some people from along this journey who have been a reflection of Jesus in many different ways.

Tresa was my nurse in Labor and Delivery twice.  She was with us early on when I first went in the hospital, and was actually there on a better day, but I could tell she had a different way of caring for her patients.  She was extremely caring and went above and beyond what she had to make sure I was okay, and that our family was being taken cared of.  Then, Tresa was there during the time when I delivered the last four babies, and throughout that Sunday.  I truely think God placed her in that position, that time frame, because He knew what we needed.  That time was quite a nightmare, not knowing what all was going to happen, she helped keep me as calm as possible.  As things progressed, and I lost the last four babies, Tresa began talking to me about having someone come in to take pictures of the babies.  At first, I wasn’t really sure about all of that, wasn’t really prepared, but so thankful that she encouraged me.  I would not take anything for those pictures now.  She arranged all of the details for the people to come that afternoon.  I remember Tresa constantly coming in to check on me, and not wanting to have to be away from us too long.  I was comfortable when she was around.  I also know she stayed way over her time to do paperwork, so that she could be with me as long as possible.  Tresa took very good care of all the babies.  In the last couple of weeks, I have had the priviledge of getting to meet up with her.  That has been wonderful, being able to ask her questions, and chat with someone who has an understanding!

Thank you Tresa for being a huge blessing in my life and making a difference during such a hard time.  It is neat to know we have a friendship through crazy circumstances, but I am thankful for you!

***I do have a doctor’s appointmet today, please pray for a good report, as I will be doing an ultrasound and blood work. Thanks!

    WHAT A BLESSING TRESA WAS TO NOT ONLY COURTNEY, BUT ALSO TO ME. HER COMPASSION, HER CARING, AND HER CALMING EFFECT WAS UNMEASURABLE. I KNOW THAT GOD PLACED HER WITH US DURING A MOST DIFFICULT TIME AND FOR THAT I AM VERY THANKFUL. THANKS TRESA FOR BEING A PART OF OUR LIVES AND THOSE SIX PRESIOUS LITTLE ONES.
