[size=4]Please pray for Rianna, her family, and her baby Ginny. Ginny was born 7 days ago at 27 weeks at just over 1 pound. She had been doing okay but the family was just informed a bleed in her brain. Mom writes: "It is level 2 on scale of 4, we don't know exactly what this means but brain damage is highly likely at 3 and 4 and she could easily get worse.[/size][size=4] Please pray. I'm so scared."[/size]

Thank you all. No update yet, but I will let you know if I hear anything. She is a former classmate of mine from Franciscan and a wonderful Catholic mom.

Someone from a prayer chain I'm part of would like this to go to Rianna:
[quote]When my mother was pregnant with my young twin brothers, there were a lot of people who were praying because, while one of the twins was expected to be normal, the other looked like a lot of concerns. The best prognosis was for him to have hydrocephalis ("water on the brain"), and have a shunt installed. The worst prognosis was for him to be dead at birth.

I remember that when I placed my hand on my mother's abdomen, they would stop kicking.

Today Kirk has a mild case of cerebral palsy; after therapy most people don't pick up on a handicap. But when a man passed by with a boy with leg braces ("AFO") today at an event, I came over and very quietly told the father, "Sir, that gentleman in the blue shirt over there wore AFO's as a kid." They went over and my brother happily talked about wearing AFO's as a child and commiserated and had a chance to encourage someone.[/quote]
