Prayers requested

My sister, Jennifer, found out today that she lost her baby boy. The umbilical cord had a knot in it and was wrapped about his neck. She went in for a routine check-up with the nurse and they couldn't find the heartbeat and then confirmed that with an ultrasound. Jennifer & her husband, Willis, are in complete shock. The baby was due next week. If you can pray for them, I would appreciate it. Thank you.

That is SO awful, I cannot imagine that. I will certainly keep her in my prayers. It turned out that Leia had a knot in her cord. I was told it could be fatal but you tend to put these things at the back of your mind since she was born safely. My heart goes out to them.

I can't imagine anything worse! Kiera was also born with a knot in her cord and with it wrapped around her neck. Jason said when she came out he was sure she was dead and he didn't know how he was going to tell me. I guess I never realized how lucky I was that she is alive.
