Last Friday’s Appointment
We (Kurt, baby and I) had a high risk specialist appointment to follow up on a couple of things they saw on the ultrasound that the doctors were concerned over. There were about 5 things that they needed to check on… and some of them were scary for us. Kurt and I started this process well over a month ago — so this follow up appointment was the culmination of a month’s worth of prayers. No, not worry or fear, because we honestly gave the fear and to God a month ago and instead just prayed for his healing hand on our little baby.
I know God is good all the time, but usually He is is SO good. Of the 5 things they were concerned about, there was only 1 thing remaining. I will tell you what it is so you can pray too. His kidneys are enlarged. It could be something more (we don’t know; major or minor, common or uncommon) or but the doctor said it could just clear itself up. So, that is what we are going to ask in prayer. God please help heal/regulate/fix his kidneys.

Oh Becky. That’s a lot to think about. Praise God that 4 of the things are of no concern anymore. I will pray for Baby’s kidneys. And for your peace of mind. Hugs…

Thanks for letting us know so we can pray. It is good that now it’s one instead of five worrisome issues…but still worrisome nonetheless. Take care my friends and know that God had your baby in his strong protective hands.
