Hello all,
I wanted to ping you tonight for a prayer request for my sister.
You may remember that she and her husband lost their firstborn, Samantha, during labor last July.
Here is the thread that I pinged you with last summer:
Well, blessedly, she is pregnant again. Almost 4.5 months (23 weeks to be exact). And it is a BOY!
However, their are some issues surrounding the baby that I would be grateful for some prayers about.
1st of all, their is only one artery in the umbilical cord, where their should be two. This, I am told, increases the risk of stillbirth, mental retardation and the like.
Secondly, during the last ultrasound they were unable to verify that the left chamber of the heart is the correct size. However, this could be due to the early gestational age as the ultrasound was at only 19 weeks.
At any rate...her follow-up ultrasound is tomorrow at 1:00 Eastern time.
I would so very much appreciate prayers for the well being of this child. It is heartbreaking to watch my only sibling hold on to her sanity by the thinnest of threads.
Thank you as always for your prayers~

Please, how do they know there's just one artery in the umbilical cord? And also, the last ultrasound was at 19 weeks, and that's not definitive.
Let's agree in prayer that this boy is carried to full term most healthly and is born with no mental or physical problems. We ask this in the Name of Jesus.

God, our Father, we thank You for the gift of
love and the gift of life.
We thank you for the gift of our children.
We ask You to send Your holy angels to protect
and guide them each day so that they will walk
the narrow path of purity, self-control and
obedience, as was taught to us by
Your own Son, Jesus Christ.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord,
in union with the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Tell your sister: deep in the night, we are praying for her. While she sleeps, her family in Christ goes to Our Father to pray for their baby.
I am praying for you also - be strong, God is still God...
