A fellow bloggy friend pointed me in the direction of this amazing blog. It is a really sad and touching blog about a woman who has Cystic Fibrosis. Days before she was to go in to start the procedure to get a double lung transplant they found out she was pregnant.
Knowing it could risk her life they decided to continue with the pregnancy, viewing the precious babies life as a gift from God.
The baby was born this week prematurely. She was 24 weeks along. The mother and baby are both fighting for their lives.
The husband and now proud daddy is the writer of the blog. Grab a box of klennex before heading over to the site Confessions of a CF Husband
Here is a very small taste of what you will find on his blog:
"It's amazing to consider that both of my girls are in almost exactly the same state. Both are lying on the backs, almost totally unaware of their surroundings and of each other, both are on ventilators, both have multiple IV's, pic lines, arterial lines, etc., both will have a feeding tube (prayerfully Gwyneth will have one very soon)."
The man's dad, uncle and his two sister in laws have blogs that talk about their insight to the situation too. The links can all be found on the blog I linked you to. Check out the blog, and pray for the family as you think of them.
