It’s a funny feeling. Every time the phone rings, our hearts sink a little with anticipation of what we’re about to hear. It’s like bracing for impact, then avoiding the collision each time. This morning, our fetal maternal’s office called again. The lab is on the ball and has completed the testing for Miller Dieker syndrome. Negative. Again – no signs of abnormality. The dialogue of answered prayer then ensues.
The day is drawing near. After much thought, discussion, and prayer we have decided to induce labor next Wednesday, March 9th. We feel this will be the best option for care with so many variables and uncertainties that stand before us. The proper staff will be in place and ready to address anything presented.
Shawna and I are both excited and apprehensive at the same time. Confirmation after confirmation gives us peace that everything is going to be all right. Indulge me for a minute - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CY6A5arNCQQ
What we do not know is if everything is okay from day one or month one or year one. So, we prepare our hearts for any situation and believe. Where one of our journeys ends, the other begins, and we face life and run with it.
