Thanks for your prayers.


We went to the Maternal-Fetal Specialist today. He said that the tumor had not grown in size at all. He said that if they had not grown in the past 3 weeks, then he was pretty certain that they would not continue to grow. He said that he couldn't give 100% certainty, because nothing in life is certain, but he felt confident that surgery would not be needed right now. Susan will go in every several weeks to make sure that its not growing, and unless something changes, the tumor will be taken out when Susan has her C-Section. Thank you to all of you who are praying for us. The Lord has answered mercifully. When we go back into the specialist, they will be able to tell the gender, as long as the baby cooperates. Also, they will be able to make a video of the ultrasound. In the meantime, they gave us a bunch of pictures today. Most of them are pretty alien-like, but this one isn't too bad. Is it just me, or is that foot big! The baby did a couple somersaults and was literally bouncing up and down. I think we have another ADD child in the making. :)

What a great answer to prayer!!! It's so great to hear that the tumor hasn't grown. We'll continue praying for the safe delivery of the baby and for your health Susan.
Thanks for keeping us updated.

Love, Sher

P.S. Compared to the baby's head, the foot doesn't look that big. :)

I'm glad to hear that news! :)

So, who is this baby taking after in the feet department? Oh the highschool memories that are flooding in right now. ;)
