JJ Sappett has a baby boy!!

Reunion Guru Robin King forwarded this to most everyone, but just in case the email missed anyone...

Hi Classmates-

OK brace yourselves for this one....

Liz Sappet (JJ's Wife) has gone back to Florida since JJ's passing, and was home alone the other night. Both her family, and JJ's are up in this area, so she is pretty much on her own down there.

The other night she had to rush herself to the hospital via ambulance with SEVERE abdominal pains, and ended up delivering an 8 lb baby boy!!!!!! Yes - I can answer your question - NO, SHE DID NOT EVEN KNOW SHE WAS PREGNANT!!! For those of you who saw her at the funeral - I know what you are thinking - she didn't even look pregnant at all - never mind 8 months pregnant!!!

I believe this is God's little miracle for that family!

I am in tight with her family, and trying to find out what she needs. Can you imagine leaving the hospital without any diapers, or even changes of clothes....

WOW!!

Robin

I have two boys, and a BUNCH of infant stuff that would inevitably end up in a yard sale. I will let you all know where we can provide any care packagees as soon as Robin provides me the address. Seriously though... you hear of people delivering babies in bathroom stalls because they "didn't even know they were pregnant", and every time I see that I reply "WHATEVER!". This however has me scratching my head a little bit though...

Hi All - I wanted to clarify some of the facts of this posting... First of all - I have found out that JJ's parents are in fact in Florida with Liz- and it was JJ's mom who helped Liz get to the hospital. Also - a typo - I am in TOUCH (Not in TIGHT) with jj's family about trying to find out what they need. The best thing right now is GC to Babies R US.

Sorry for the miscommunication!

Robin
