Prayers Needed

After I joyfully told the news of a baby on its way to join my family, I must now mournfully tell of its loss. Chris and Kittie discovered a few weeks back that there might be something wrong with the baby. What the doctor had told them was that the neck of the baby was growing too fast, which can usually be a sign of either a deformity or down syndrome. So, the scheduled another appointment so that tests could be taken. It wasn't until this past Monday that they found out something; which by that point in time Kittie had already started to bleed some. The doctor told them that what happened was the the fetus was probably trying to correct the mutation of genes and in the process aborted itself. And the tests came back positive that there definitely would have been some type of deformity with it. Good news is though that the doctor saw no reason why Chris and Kittie would not be able to try again and have a perfectly healthy pregnancy and baby. So that's the story, and please keep the two of them in your thoughts through this difficult time.
