Now for that Beautiful Miracle Story:

My Best Friend Suzanne recently became a new Grandma. Her daughter Jen gave birth to a little miracle on May 31st. Little Miss Presley was born 12 weeks early and weighed in at 3lbs 3ozs.  Little Presley has been a miracle since the moment she made her emergency entrance into this world.

Jen had struggled with preeclampsia throughout her pregnancy and when she went in for her 28-week check up her potassium and calcium levels were down while her blood pressure was soaring around 200/120.  Jen had to deliver her first baby by emergency c-section.

Presley slept swaddled in an incubator with a CPAP *Continuous Positive Airway Pressure* to remind her to breathe. Doctors said she would likely have to stay in the NICU for roughly two months. Presley’s feeding volumes  increased each day she was  at the hospital and only her progress in meeting certain criteria would see her home earlier.

Here is Presley.. being compared to a 20 oz Coke Bottle! Amazing huh?

After only 21 days in the hospital.. and weighing in at a Tiny But Mighty 3lbs 9ozs Lil Miss Presley got to go home on Father’s Day! A Precious Little Miracle… To God all the Glory!

  8. Oh, my, how sweet is that baby?! My DIL developed pre-eclampsia with our twin granddaughters and they had to be delivered 6 weeks early - weighing just at 4 lb. each. It's hard to believe they are such sturdy looking little 3 1/2 year olds now. Maybe that will encourage your friend. (Oh, by the way, they were born Dec. 6, and were in the NICU through Christmas into January)

  11. Dear Debbie,
    PRAISE GOD FOR PRINCESS PRESLEY, FROM WHICH ALL BLESSINGS COME.
    GOD IN HIS MERCY is so very good.....We received some news about Amy yesterday that just sent us free falling from our mountain top but it is greener in the pasture by still waters.
    The message you left on my blog I will carry with me through Amy's tests and upcoming surgery. I thought we were through all this but she has to have the test where they go into the groin and will try to put a balloon in her carotid artery. We thought there would be no surgery....the mass was gone....Dr. Dexeus said they must get the lymph node out if she is to survive because the cancer will keep coming back...it is the surgery that is so risky but the cross is shadowing all the worries and fears...we never know what might be going to happen in someone's life when we are led to leave a message the holy spirit has whispered to us.
    thank you sweet lady and it was so wonderful to see Princess Presley..she has a lot of strength already.
    hugs and love
