T & P request for friends

So Saturday was a real sh*tty day... 

I woke up to a text from my best friend, saying she had her baby. She wasn't due until December 24! The doctors did an emergency c-section because her enzyme levels were too high and her platelets were dangerously low, so they had to do it for both of their health. The baby, Anya Mary, is only 1lb 5oz, but doing well.  Her heart is strong and she is breathing on her own for the most part.   If anyone who prays could add my friends and their new beautiful baby to their prayers I'd really appreciate it.  It's going to be a long road...

A few hours later, I learned that one of my best friends from college lost his battle with cancer. If you could add his family to the list too I'd appreciate it. This blows; there's no other way to put it...

Re: T & P request for friends

  • Lots of thoughts and prayers for you and for them.

    A friend of mine had her baby girl at 23 weeks last fall. She is now a thriving, healthy, beautiful little girl. Miracles happen. If you'd like to see her blog, I'm happy to PM it to you. It's obviously been a rough journey for them, but they've had a happy ending.

    Thank you. I would love to read her blog and possibly share it with my best friend. We already know the baby is a fighter. I have no doubts she will be fine, but it would be nice to read about a happy ending to keep our spirits up.

  • It sounds like HELLP syndrome (hemolysis, elevated liver enzymes, low platelets) and yeah, delivery is the only option to correct it. How scary!!

    Your friend and new baby girl are in my prayers! I hope she continues to do well and grow. Friends of ours had to deliver their second girl about 10 or 11 weeks early because of worsening preeclampsia. She was in the NICU for a bit, but she's been doing really well and growing like a champ. 

    I'm so sorry for the loss of your friend. Cancer is so awful.

  • That's exactly what it was, @LuckyAngel07. I can't imagine how scared she must be! My friend is supposed to be discharged tomorrow and the thought of having to leave your baby in the hospital while you go home rips my heart out! Glad to hear another story with a happy ending. Thanks for the T&P's.
