Well not exactly what I had planned for this weekend but here we are. My water broke this afternoon and we are now getting settled in at Harris Methodist in Fort Worth. There was some talk about delivering tonight but after being monitored for a few hours Charlie seems stable and I am not having any contractions. There is no sign of infection and they have started IV antibiotics. I will get a couple round of steroids (at my request) to give Charlie's lungs any extra help we can. Then on Monday all "my" doctors will be back and we will deliver. Of course at any sign of infection, contractions or distress we will have to go ahead and deliver.
Please don't worry or stress! Just let me do that ;) I am simply sharing because we have been blessed by so many of you over the last few months and I want to keep you informed AND ask for your prayers. I truly believe we made it this far because of those prayers.
Dear Lord I pray it is Your will that Charlie survive but whatever happens I know You will be with us. Please provide us Your peace. The one that passes all understanding. Surround our doctors and nurses with your wisdom and let them be kind. Be with Andrew and Mckinley, keep them safe and worry-free. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.
Grace and peace be yours in abundance through the knowledge of God an Jesus our Lord... That scripture was brought to mind during a difficult time and The Lord was gracious enough to remind me that grace and peace are ours in abundance simply because we know Him. This journey has definitely brought you closer to Him... i pray He showers you with them both in abundance! You and your sweet, sweet family are in our prayers.. Thank you for letting us know!
