It's been a while since we've posted. The move and settling between homes has consumed most of our time. We will catch up on that, but right now we have an update on David's sister Chrissy and prayers needed for her pregnancy situation.
Chrissy went to the hospital today. She is around the 24/25 week mark into her pregnancy. Her body decided that it was time to birth the twins (they had passed away several weeks ago). This obviously poses a health risk to the third baby. The initial attempts to halt contractions did not work. So, Chrissy has recieved shots to help Briana's lungs develop and shots to hold off the birthing of the twins until after midnight (to give Briana time to get the medicine). The doctor said that Chrissy's body may stabilize ones the twins are birthed, and Briana will be able to stay in longer. However, her body may begin to birth Briana, and they will need to perform a C-section to reduce the trauma to Briana's little body. Though we would love to get to meet our first niece, we pray she is able to stay safe inside for a while longer!
Please pray for Chrissy, Brad and the baby as they go through this time.
** UPDATE **
Briana was delivered tonight (after 8pm). She's just over a pound, and the neo-natal doctor says she appears very healthy. Thank you for continued thoughts and prayers.
