Dear Friends and Loved Ones,
It looks like we again need to ask for your focused prayers as we just discovered some unfortunate news.
Sonia just came back from her daily checkup and washing to find that she is bleeding a little and that her cervix has reopened. On top of that, her test results finally came back (the delay in getting test results back is our only reservation about this hospital) and her test showed positive for some sort of pneumonia bug that is resistant to the type of antibiotic she has been taking. Due to the delay in getting her results back (they took the sample on Monday), there has been a precious delay in changing her medication to another more effecitve antibiotic.
The good news is that there are still no significant signs of contractions.
Please pray that He, through the doctors and directly, can reverse this problem. Specifically, I am praying that it is the infection that is prompting the reopening and bleeding so that if the new antibiotics are effective, the bleeding will stop and Sonia's cervix will close again.
Thank you again for your prayers and support.
Blessings,
Jong

I'm a friend of Melanie Murphy. She informed us of your situation, and I just wanted to let you know that the entire Manhattan Church of Christ family is praying for you, Rachel, and Isaac. I myself am 25 weeks pregnant and can somewhat imagine the what you must be going through. I'll definitley be praying and checking your blog for updates
Jong/Sonia,
I was told by my friend, Jeni, (her father is an OBGYN, that you can "sew" the cervix closed if that is the problem. Is that an option your doctor gave you?
I'll pray for all of you. I really do hope Rachel and Isaac make it!

I was forwarded your ordeal by Charmaine Cheuk our prayer buddy and close friend. It is so wonderful to see God working through your experiences to bring these prayers together from all corners of the globe.
I'll be praying for you with my wife and daughter.

thanks d.j., manhattan church of christ and tetsu san for ur prayers.
dear mary, a cerclage could have been an option if rachels bag of water slipped back into my womb from outside my cervix after being admitted last tues. but rachels water broke last wed a.m. and a cerclage now might risk an infection too much.
