Fi's cousins just had a beautiful baby girl two nights ago. Less than 12 hours after birth, the baby turned purple while mom was holding her. They had to intubate her on site in the room and transfer the baby to a NICU at another hospital. Her right lung stopped ventilating. Shes also losing blood and needing blood transfusions, no known reason why.
Mom is still in the other hospital recovering and trying to deal with the emotions of her newborn being in critical condition as well as learning to keep up with a pumping schedule so that she will one day be able to feed her baby. She can't even see her newborn during this time. Her husband is going back and forth between the hospitals spending time with baby, but also with his wife.
These people are very close to me because we asked their two other children to be flower girl and ring bearer in our wedding. I will be sad if they cannot make it now, but it is totally understandable. I was looking forward to meeting this sweet baby at our wedding.
We believe in the power of prayer. Any good thoughts and prayers are welcome for this baby girl to heal and be released from the hospital and for mom and family to be given peace.
As a selfish note I'm praying the baby will recover and be in fit shape to attend my wedding.
Thanks ladies
