A new baby. An end of pregnancy. A new journey is begun as an old journey is ended.
Today, Baby Zoe Grace Roy was born. (well, that is what I call her....they can't decide on a first name yet) Baby Zoe is a bit of a miracle. Awhile ago she was diagnosed with Spina Bifida and hydrocephaly. Her parents were told how bad it was going to be. They were even told that many babies like her die before they are born. Meloney, her mom, didn't like to go to see the doctor because he was so negative.
So, we began to pray. And pray. And pray. When we didn't have some specific physical need to pray for we prayed that the negative doctor would not be able to be negative and upset Meloney...you'll have to get Mel to tell you that story.
Baby Zoe has a very small sac at the base of her spine and a very mild hydorcephaly. Her legs and her knees work. Her lungs work fine even though she is a month early. She was born big enough to put a shunt in immediately to alleviate pressure.
Yes. Baby Zoe is a miracle. She is already the most precious thing in the world to her 3 older sisters. She has doting grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends. Her parents are two of the most amazing people I know.
Tomorrow the pediatric neuro surgeon will close the hole in her spine and put in her shunt. Surgery will start 7:30ish and last 6 - 8 hours.
And we will continue to pray for continued miracles, because our God is like that.
Lift up a prayer for Baby Zoe Grace Roy.
Lay some lovin' on one of God's miracles that lives with you.
