Baby Mia

I just wanted to take a moment to thank everybody for the prayers, good vibes and well-wishes. Baby Mia is steadily improving each day. We're really hopefully that she'll be O.K. We really are touched by the outreach here. Thank you all so much.

Cool stuff.

Glad to hear it.

When you feel the time is right, I know that we’d all love to see a picture of her.

Hey, great news

Ryan Sweeney: I probably irrationally embraced him before you did.

Wonderful! Absolutely Wonderful!

So happy to hear Mia’s doing well. Hope that your wife and you are doing well, too.

She’ll continue to be in thoughts and prayers.

As a fellow ex-pat...

I hope the trauma that accompanied this doesn’t diminish the experience.

Very glad to hear that things are going well, and all the best to your wife.

Keep it up, mia

Children, until we have taught them better, will be perfectly happy with a seasonal round of games in which conkers succeeds hopscotch.

Thanks for the update - so happy to hear she is getting stronger!

If I don't comment on your comment how will you know you are completely wrong? -Rocktopus

Congrats to you and your wife

Good thoughts and positive vibes all came before warm wishes and congratulations on your new addition – and they keep on coming. Enjoy your first Christmas together and get ready for a lifetime of spoiling. Its funny how you think that you are done shopping, yet you find that (those) one, two or ten more things that you think your little girl would love to have . . . . then you start looking at the A’s gear for boys on mlb.com.

Glad to hear the good news.

Thanks for the update...

My 6th graders & I are still praying for your family & baby Mia. Keep the faith, man. The Lord will never leave you nor forsake you…

As for the boys A’s gear: They make plenty of pink A’s stuff. My daughter Emma (she’s 18 months) has a ton. Of course, she still rocks the classic green & gold cap from time to time!

You know.....

I’m thrilled that she’s doing better, and join with everyone here in wishing for her nothing but health, happiness, (and a few series wins before she turns 12).

BUT….

Yea!

I missed this earlier and I’ve been thinking about you and wondering how she is doing. This is such wonderful news!

Best. Fanshot. Ever.
