Please pray for the following families and CHD warriors:
My friend, Maureen, is being induced today at 38 weeks. Her son, Brendan, has severe PS (possibly HRHS) and Tricuspid Valve Regurgitation. She has known for awhile he will need caths and surgery after birth, but at her appointment yesterday, it was discovered that in the last week Brendan has developed serious edema and another measurement is way off from where it should be. It is not good to leave him inside his mother any longer, so he is being born today. Please pray he is healthy as can be at his birth and is stable, this has been such a long road for them and he is such a fighter. He deserves the best chance to start off his life outside the womb.
Also, my friend, Jill, her baby, Talia, is facing experimental surgery this Friday. She was born on May 5th and already underwent a balloon valvuloplasty and a BT Shunt, not to mention she was the 11th baby to undergo in-utero surgery in Boston. Her Tricuspid Valve is prohibiting her right ventricle from growing appropriately, so they are looking to replace it, but there isn't one small enough for her. So, they have to customize it. If this doesn't work, she will have two more surgeries (at least), called the Glenn and the Fontan, to create a heart that works off 3 chambers.
Please pray hard for these CHD warriors and their families.
