Prayer Request for Friend's Daughter's Pregnancy
self | 4-6-02 | serinde

Posted on 04/06/2002 3:18:50 PM PST by serinde

I heard today that a friend's daughter is pregnant, and they have found out the fetus has a chromosomal abnormality. The baby is considered hydropic and multi-cystic, which for laymen means he/she has fluid in the lungs and chest cavity and has numerous external fluid-filled cysts and edema (or swelling) throughout the body. There is a heart abnormality as well.

Apparently most of these babies die in utero between 20-24 weeks. The mother is 19 1/2 weeks (about 5 months). Some babies can go full term, but will die at birth or shortly thereafter.

Needless to say, the family needs prayers of support as they go through this difficult time. Also, please ask God to take the baby soon so that it does not suffer and that the mother's health will not be adversely affected.

Thanks.

Some babies are too precious to allow to be soiled by this earth. A prayer for peace to the family.

God has given this family a special angel that is here but for a short time. While there is much grieving, there will also be great blessings for this family. My heart aches for the, and they certainly have my prayers.

As an RN in a NICU, I have had the privilege to be in the presence of a lot of God's special angels, and to be able to give comfort and support to the families whe they go through such a trying time.

Prayers for this little one, of whom it was written long ago, "All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." (Ps. 139:16)

Has this been diagnosed as systic fibrosis? If so, dont give up hope on that baby. My brother and his wife have a systic fibrosis baby. Wasn't expected to live to be born, DID live to be born. Wasn't expected to live past birth, and then past 2 years, then: etc..., the boy is almost a teenager. He has problems with his eyes and has to wear special tinted glasses, but other wise he is doing very good. He plays with other children his age, and is involved in sports. Prayers going up for the baby and the mother. Please, trust in God to protect this child. He can work miracles.

Father,

Silverwoman and I agree in prayer that You will heal and restore this baby in the womb, for with God all things are possible! By Your stripes ye were healed, baby and mother. Heal and restore baby and mother in Jesus Holy and Precious Name,

Amen and Amen
