Update...

I thought I would pass along this update from the Russell family.

This is copied from Jason & Amber's site.

Friday night, Amber went into labor. I was at work and met Amber at the hospital. Bob, Cher and Crystal, rushed her in to meet me at the hospital. I rushed Amber back to the labor and deliver ward. They started hooking Amber up to the monitors to check the baby. But they could not find a heart beat. So, they brought in a ultrasound to find the heart beat. But i and the doctor could see no heart beat.

Amber’s labor was so fast. After the ultrasound, Amber had Ava naturally. Yes that means no drugs. Ava was born at 0048, October 13th. Ava had the cord wrapped around her neck twice cutting the flow of blood off to her body. It is very rare, but our family has heard that before. So Ava and Aubrey are playing together at the feet of Jesus now.


We were blessed by having another doctor, someone we have never met. He was awesome. Very strong in his beliefs and faith. Which allowed us to have some relief in this troubled time. Dr. Shull was great. He told Amber and I that Ava had died maybe 24 hours before Amber went into labor. He also stated that there will be no definite answer to why this happened.


Ava Julia Russell will be laid to rest beside her big sister Tuesday, October the 16th at Lake Hills Memorial Gardens Trenton, Ga at 2 o’clock. There will be no visitation. Graveside services will be held at Lake Hills Memorial Gardens. And a meal will be served at East Brow Baptist Church. Also when you come to the church you all can visit Aubrey’s Place.

Please continue to remember this family in this time of devastating grief. Every time I think of having to plan funerals for 2 children much less within a 6 month period my heart breaks for them all over again.
