Thank you

Because I know you care and that's why you're reading this, I wanted to share the news. Stuart really said it best in an e-mail to his family and I'm sort of out of words so I'll just post his note.

Hey everyone,

B and I appreciate your fasting and prayers on our behalf this past little while. I wish that I had good news for you all right now, but I don't. We just got word today that B is not pregnant. Honestly I was surprised by the news, I thought it worked. We tried the best we could to make the best of the treatment, B followed everything exactly. I'm sure everyone is heartbroken by this news. I however don't want to make it a bigger deal then it already is. At this point all I ask is for your sensitivity (which I know I already have) but most importantly your Positivity. B and I plan on having an uplifting holiday with you all. Smiles and Hugs will mean more then long conversations at this point. Things will all work out sooner or later. So in the words of my favorite mom, "chin up," and in the words of my self, thank you so much, and we love you.

Best,

Stu

Merry Christmas everyone - in this season may you find peace in our Savior. I know I will. This message means more to me than anything else right now.

  1. We love you both dearly and are so proud of you and the way you are handling everything. When I heard the news I was surprised as well, and with that I have great hope for your future family. I wish I was there to give you both a big hug, but that will come next week. We are excited to see you over the holidays. I'm very grateful for a wonderful amazing daughter and especially at this time for the equally amazing husband she chose--Thank you Stuart for loving Brittney and taking care of her! See you both soon!

  3. I love you guys. So so so much. All I want to do is give you a hug, but like Barb said above, a virtual hug will have to do for now. Until next week. And I agree with Mom... Stu is pretty dang awesome.
