Such a tragic story. The inspiration and faith that Chad Cole continues to show throughout this whole ordeal is absolutely inspiring. My heart breaks for him, his family, their friends, and the doctors and staff at Mott - I'm sure they've all done all they could to save little Miranda. Please check out their event on Facebook..it's under Pray for Baby Miranda- over 30,000 people have joined (myself included) and are sharing words of hope, faith, encouragement, and caring-- it is simply amazing to see all those pull in tight around this family during their time of need. God Bless the Cole Family.
