Timothy James

I was admitted to the hospital on Dec. 8th because my amniotic sac was leaking and I had begun to dilate. I was ordered to lie flat on my back until the baby came ( I was due April 2nd!). Well, on Dec. 17th my water broke at 7:15pm and Timothy James decided to come early. He was breech and already on his way out, so the doctor did an emergency C-section and at 10:20 pm he was delivered. He went straight to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) and has been there ever since. Timothy was only 25 weeks along in his development (a "normal" pregnancy lasts 40 weeks) so he still has a lot of growing to do.

Psalm 38:9 & 15 "Lord, all my desire is before You, and my sighing is not hidden from You. For I hope in You, O Lord. You will answer, O Lord my God."


Praise the Lord! He always answers prayer! We will have a new day nurse beginning on Nov. 15. She is a nurse who has worked with us before and she is a Christian! We are so thankful! For the next 2 weeks, until she starts, I am on my own so please pray for strength for me each day as now I have to take care of Timothy's "regular" baby needs as well as all the medical needs, equipment, and supplies.

Happy November! Hope you had a fun Halloween. (check out our new pics in the October photo album)
