ANOTHER PRAYER REQUEST--FOR AN UNBORN BABY & MOM

It is amazing to me

that someone that I don't know

finds their way to my blog

through one means or another

and asks for prayer.

This came from

Nancy @ A Joyful Cottage.

It is not for her!

Nope-it is for another person she visits.

Homespun Devotions.

I don't know this lady,

but she has asked for prayer for 

her niece, Kristen, and 

Kristen's unborn baby.

For anyone that has ever had 

a tenuous pregnancy-

one that is fraught with anxiety

and the fear of the unknown,

you will know exactly what 

Kristen is going through right now.

Not only does she have to worry about

her baby's life but also her own life.

I am just going to copy and paste

the words Kristen's Aunt wrote:

"Please pray for Kristen.  She is 26 weeks pregnant with a baby boy, and due to the improper handling of an IV, she developed a blood clot, which has traveled to her lung.  She is also suffering from tachycardia and has to give herself blood thinning medication shots for the remainder of her pregnancy.  She cannot give birth while taking the medicine she is currently on, as it would endanger her life.  Yet, they cannot switch her to the medicine she needs to be on before giving birth too early, as it can cross over into the placenta and kill the baby.  One of the things that concerns us most is that they have not been able to figure out an exact due date.  Timing is of the essence, as it is imperative that the switch in medications be made at the exact right moment.  We would SO appreciate your prayers  that God will spare both Kristen's and the baby's life and allow His power to be revealed in this situation, in spite of multiple medical missteps that have happened along the way.  I think often of Jehoshaphat's words, "Neither know we what to do, but our eyes are upon Thee."  Your prayers are appreciated more than we can say."

Please lift this young lady 

and her unborn child up in prayer.  

If you are not a pray-er, 

please send your good thoughts 

and personal blessings to her.

Thank you all so much. 

When I know the outcome

 I will do an update here.

Have a wonderful Sunday.
