AN UPDATE

To make this easier, I just got permission from my friend to use names for all these people y'all have been praying for. My friend's name is Lori and she really appreciates all the prayers. Lori's brother's name is Rusty and his wife, the expectant mother, is named Nicole. The baby's name is Spencer. After more deliberation the doctors have decided to do the C-section in the next 24-48 hours considering the instability of Nicole's blood pressure, its effects on Spencer, etc. So needless to say, the next two days are very critical. Add to this the situation with Lori and Rusty's parents, Donna and Sam. Sam has cancer and is in the middle of taking some very strong medication as part of a clinical trial. He's obviously feeling the effects of the medication and is not able to rest very well. Donna and Sam will have to leave right after the baby is born to go to Texas for more cancer treatments.

Again, thank you for your continued prayers. A final review of SACH is forthcoming very soon, I promise!

Apparently the baby has still not been born. The doctors are trying to do everything possible to keep him there a little longer. Thanks for praying.

Another update: Spencer is still in the womb. Thank you for your prayers. Lori's dad and mom are still in Houston awaiting cancer treatment.
