Truly a little miracle!

I realize I haven't been as faithful to the blog as I'd like to be... I promise to get better. But, I'm feeling a bit under the weather so tonight I just wanted to introduce a really neat blog that Emily shared with me. I know I could have just added it to the sidebar but I really think it's a neat story and I wanted to bring it to your attention.

It's about a family that chose LIFE for their baby even though the mother's life was in danger. The mother has Cystic Fibrosis and was preparing to have a double lung transplant, but found out she was pregnant. She carried the baby as long as her body would allow it, which ended up being just over 24 weeks gestation. (Both mother and baby had a 50% chance of survival, but both are doing well, although the mom, Tricia, is on the list and waiting for her double lung transplant.)

Their story, as told on this husband's blog, http://cfhusband.blogspot.com/, will make you laugh and make you cry and really encourage you with this family's enormous faith. He writes multiple times each day, so there's a lot there and you could be reading for days... but you can get the beginner's summary on the right sidebar of the site when you go there. Also, here's a REALLY ADORABLE picture of Gwyneth who is now 2 months old and breathing totally on her own! Praise the Lord!



I hope you'll add this blog to your favorites and follow this family's journey of faith with me... and even encourage others to join them, too. One day I hope to see them all go home together (and maybe even end up on Extreme Makeover!). Regardless of what happens, they are an incredible couple with an amazing story of faith!
