My Wife Has Been Arrested!!! Help!!!

Zachstar and Rilder, this charity is about the children pictures below. Prematures who did not ask to be in this world. These two are children of my brother-in-law and sister-in-law. These are my twin premature nieces. They are not friggin bubbas on welfare waiting to happen. These two were born January 1st this year. They came home just 5 weeks ago. They were no more than 1 pound a piece at birth.









This is Hannah and Emily as they look like today. They smile, they coo, the make baby poo. Very similar to what you to did if not exactly the same. They act just like my two girls when they were babies. They cry and drink from a bottle. They fill their diapers. The have projectile vomiting. I see them every weekend and I have baby sat the two one night a week since they have been home from the NICU. Yeah, they are darn special.





Needless to say it is charities like this that GR is promoting that help prematures make it to adulthood. Again, they did not ask to be here...no reason to be taking out you frustrations concerning the world on them.

Sure, helping humanity as a whole is great but telling one family with a innocent premature babie to shove is heartless as you stated. I'm glad your folks were not 'realists' concerning you and your introduction to the world. You apparently did not read GR response as well as others concerning this charity. I suggest you do so.

adorable.

thanks for sharing the pics!

im very close to my niece... she is 7 now i can remember when she was only a couple of months old and she was so taken with the "shiny reflectiveness" of my wrist watch.

the expense with placing these little ones in ICU is enormous.

but not so enormous as the gift of getting them out of ICU.

There ya go GR, I donated $20.00 to free your wife and for the cause.

thanks very much guys

I must admit I didn't know what this charity was for so I do sympathize, my "dislike" of charities is mainly for those trying to help the starving and poor directly not those researching ways to help people who were born with issues.

I am not heartless (I hope) I Just see it as I would rather bear the pain of watching 1 person suffering then waiting a bit and seeing that children of that person suffer.

Personally, I don't understand how anyone can have a blanket disdain for charities. The world would be a great place if everyone committed to help their fellow man.

There is room for giving - both for advancement of the human race and to help out your neighbor.

If you have any doubts about March of Dimes, take a look at their history. The charity was founded by FDR to eradicate polio, and within 20 years March of Dimes funded research had produced a polio vaccine. They're one of the only charities I know of that was completely successful in achieving the goal that they were founded for.

After their success against polio, they turned to premature birth. If they can be half as successful in that fight as they were in the polio fight, they will have done a lot for the world.

Kudos to GR, his wife, and everybody else that supports this very worthwhile and effective charity.

Until the prosperity causes the population to skyrocket which causes the population to out pace the food production capabilities of earth causing massive starvation on a global scale and leading to disastrous wars that kill off millions of the populace as we fight for fertile regions of the Earth. Add in a few desperate countries throwing nukes in this war, and throwing us back into the stone age in a post apocalyptic world.

Totally off topic and borderline dillusional.
