Lisa's Emergency C-Section
Dear friends and Family,
For those of you who know my sister, Lisa, please keep her, her husband, her family and infant in your prayers. She went in for a non-stress test in her fourth pregnancy at thirty-one weeks gestation. Her baby was small and it was felt that because of Lisa's high blood pressure that the best thing would be to deliver the baby by emergency c-section last night. This came as a shock to Lisa who was hoping to keep the baby at least four more weeks. The baby weighs two pounds and is currently stable and breathing on it's own in the NICU. She was told that the baby will most likely be in the hospital for eight to nine weeks.
Post Edit: Lisa was scheduled to come home last night. She will be pumping and visiting her little one in the hospital . The pictures downloaded are off of my father's phone. You will note the lanugo (downy new hair covering this tiny body) and that they are still monitoring this tiny one closely. Thanks for your prayers. Lisa is feeling much better. Toxemia!

They will be in our prayers. I'm glad to hear that the baby is breathing on it's own!
It's wonderful to hear the baby is breathing on it's own. They will all be in our prayers. We hope all will go well from here on out for them.
Come on, baby...you can do it!
Please keep us posted! Tell Lisa we are praying for her and her baby here in Texas!
Oh my, I will pray too! Poor little baby and poor Lisa!
