We had another appt today at UW, we weren't looking forward to it as last week didn't prove hopeful and honestly, just plain disheartening. We met with the same doctor, still making it very clear that we are going to move forward with the pregnancy, much to their dismay, this is so sad by the way (they see children as disposable). Anyway... it went good, the doctor listened to us and said she will help us as we try, this is all we can do and the rest is up to God and the "fight" in Isaac, our son. They still give us no hope, but our hope is not in them at this time, it is in God.
Psalm 39:7 And so, Lord, where do I put my hope? My only hope is in you.
We have an appt once a week up there for the next 2 weeks. The plan is that I will be admitted to UW on Sept. 3rd for 3 days to 3 months. We do not know yet the total length, it will depend on how Isaac is doing and any infection, if any, I have. They will give him 2 doses of steroids (via me) to booster his lungs, they are our main concern and I will be monitored for any infection. Once my water broke, 4 weeks ago, I have been prone to serious problems/infections, but let me say, I have none thus far-PRAISE GOD!!
Please continue to pray specifically for:
1. A Bag of Water to form as a cushion around Isaac and stay (-:
2. Isaac's lungs to develop and protection over his body still being formed
3. Protection from any infection in my body
4. Our Family - we have been on an emotional roller coaster, thank you for your patience with us. Nathan and Andrew need prayer too. (-:
We love you! We are so moved by all the prayer and support from our church family, friends, family & even complete strangers. For those in Yelm... yes, we will see you on Sunday!
