Dear all,
A few weeks ago, I received an email from a gentlemen called Alan who found my blog while searching for help and hope for his wife Dawn, who is pregnant with boy twins but one of their twins' sac was leaking amniotic fluids. I received a more recent update from them and permission to post a prayer request for them here. Dawn is now about 23 weeks pregnant.
Their baby Sam is the one with the reduced amniotic fluids and last Friday the deepest pool was measured at 1.2 cm compared to the fluids his brother George has at 4.2 cm. Dawn will be admitted to the hospital once she gets to 24 weeks. Our hearts are heavy for this family as what they are going through is so similar to our experience. In particular, I remember clearly how desperate Jong felt after Rachel's water broke as he was trying to search for any and all information that can help us understand our situation more.
Please join us to pray for Sam, George, Dawn and Alan. Let's pray for nothing short of a miracle - for Dawn's pregnancy to last as long as possible, for infection to stay away, for Sam's fluids to reaccumulate somehow, for Sam's lungs to continue to develop despite the reduced fluids, for their caretakers, for Dawn's and Alan's hearts as they try to hope for their precious boys. Let's pray that they will get to bring both Sam and George home and watch them grow and thrive.
Thank you for your prayers.
Sonia
p.s. Please read on as there is an update on my checkup this morning below.

Sonia...please give that couple my address if you can. anitaelliot@centurytel.net
My water broke at 21 weeks and I had next to no water until I went into labor at 27 weeks. The most the could measure at one time was almost a teaspoon. I wasn't given very much hope at all...and was in the hospital from the time it broke until I was 27 weeks. Now I have a 6 yr old little wild boy :-) We had a long 15 week NICU...but it was all worth it.
I'll be praying for them...and please give them my email addy if they want to contact me.
