5:15 am

This morning has been a tough one, at around 3:00am Leslie's blood pressure started to go up, the nurses and doctors started doing their work and determined that it was necessary to go to delivery right away. At 3:45am our son, Shiloh Ross Power was born, shortly after he went to be with our Lord, Shiloh was just too small to survive and passed away. Leslie came out of surgery around 5:00am and is stable. She will be in recovery for at least another 24hrs. and in the hospital for another 4 to 5 days. Your prayers have been so important to Leslie and me and we thank you for your friendship, love and concern.

It will be some time before she will be able to have any visitors. In the meantime, we would appreciate your continued prayers for Leslie's recovery.


We Love all of you

God bless

  1. Leslie, Jeff and Beau,

    Words can't describe how saddened I was to read of your loss. I was praying for you in the middle of the night when I couldn't sleep and will continue to pray for you. Shiloh Ross is a beautiful name and you can be sure that like his brother, Chet, his short life will touch many. Isaiah 40:11-"He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart"

    We love you so much and continue to pray for you all (Leslie, Jeff and Beau).

    Love you,
