Intro

Brynn Marie Ervin is the devoted wife to Kyle; mother to four beauiful children - Grace, Isaiah, Noah and Anthony; Daughter to Alan and Holly, Ken and Linda; Sister to Katie, Andy and Alisa; and a friend to all!

After several weeks of bed rest at home, Brynn was checked into the hospital in order to delay the premature birth of young Anthony to a date where his lungs would be fully developed.

On December 1, 2009 at 2:37 PM, Anthony Alan Ervin was brought into this world via c-section, weighing in at only 2 pounds 11 ounces and 15.5 inches long.

Unfortunately, 24 hours after the delivery of baby Anthony, a blood clot released from Brynn's legs and stopped to block the pulmonary artery in her heart for several minutes, causing her to have a seizure. Brynn immediately underwent successful emergency open heart surgery to clear the clot. However, Brynn was without oxygen to her brain for 45 minutes or more.

The reality is that this family will have a long road ahead of them to recovery. Please keep Brynn and her family in your prayers during this time of need.

Thank you and God bless for your thoughts and prayers!

Below are Kyle's daily updates on Brynn's status.

Thank You!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My Dear Friends and Family,
It is early in the morning, but I needed to write this. I have done this a couple of times in my head, but now it is time to write it down. (Kyle's the writer, not me, so bare with this!)

THANK YOU! Through this entire ordeal you have been there for me and mine. Sierra Vista brought dinners for months. It was a gift for me knowing my kids were well fed, and also for my family who was there. There were always leftovers for the next day too! 3 months of dinners-3 days a week- there's nothing that I can say but thanks. Thanks from the bottom of my heart. Thank you Laura for being the go between girl,thank you Olga for the movies and the entertainment, and the list goes on, BUT the family forgot to write down the names, and I know I would forget someone.

THANK YOU for everyone across the world who prayed for me. From Africa, (Fr. Martin), to China (Dadd'ys co-worker) all acorss the Untied States we had prayers flowing to us. It is YOUR prayers that I am here today.

IT IS BECAUSE OF GOD AND IT IS BECAUSE OF YOU that I am here. I get to hear my children laugh, watch Anthony blow spit bubbles at me, hug my husband, kiss my family and friends. Words cannot describe how much you have touched me. My prayer is that I won't lose this wonderful gift God has given to me. HE has given me a second chance.

I still have a very long road ahead of me, and that's okay. I am not going to give up. I will walk someday, I will carry my baby from the bedroom to the living room. I will do laundry and take it in from outside. I will do dishes, cook, clean, vaccum, etc. I will drive again. I will not take my children or my wonderful husband for granted. (I might not get the spelling back, but who needs it!)

Thank You!
Love,
Brynn
