MaxedoutMom links to a story of a man trying to save the life of his unborn child. His wife had cancer, collapsed and is now brain dead. They have her hooked up to machines, trying to keep her body going long enough to bring the baby out alive. I can't imagine that type of ordeal, the emotional strain on a loving husband.
He has quit his job to stay with her in the hospital, and the bills are mounting.
Can you help? Here's the link to the fund.

Thanks you all.
UPDATE!!
I knew I forgot something.
I found the link via Esther of OUTSIDE THE BLOGWAY! I really apologize for not linking her, as I should have. It was careless editing. I am sorry Esther.
OK, you did a MUCH better job linking to that than I did. :) This story completely breaks my heart.
Posted by: esther at June 21, 2005 08:40 PMYou crack me up. I thought you visited MaxedOutMama's site on your own. I went to go look at my link again (I have no idea why) and saw I had linked to an old post of mine instead -- d'oh! So thank YOU....I probably never would have realized that if I hadn't read your post.
