First of all, thank you so much for your prayers on behalf of our family. It has been a great encouragement during this last week, Amanda, myself and soon to be born Ava are grateful for your love and support. The messages both from calling and emailing have been a great source of strength, it is amazing how God shows His faithfulness ands grace through His children. Here is an update since our last email. Last Tuesday they did a test to look at Ava's chromosomes (Amniocentesis) and today we received the results. The test showed that her chromosomes looked normal, which was the best possible news we could receive from those tests. The doctor still believes that something is wrong with her brain, but today's results show that there is nothing genetically wrong with her.
Something else could be causing what the doctor sees, but todays results were the best possible answer we could receive from the tests.
Please continue to pray for Amanda and the baby in the coming weeks. The pregnancy has been tough on Amanda, and we are still concerned about Ava as she grows. They moved Amanda's due date to April 16 and also moved her to Duke Medical Center for her delivery. It is about 30 minutes away from our home, but it is one of the best. As of now we don't know anything more than this, so you can imagine how the next two months are going to feel. Ava and Amanda are in God's hands as He teaches us to completely put our trust in Him.
Thank you again for your concern and prayer. Nothing surprises God, He continues to show that His timing and plan is best.
Because of HIS Grace
