Update on Baby Creel

Jami had her peri appt Friday at 840. They went to the Kirkland clinic because the perinat... at brookwood was on vacation with his family (springbreak in B'ham). So God was already moving in this because UAB is a much better place and that is where we send all of our pts from STV where I work. They got a lot of answers and some better news. First it is a boy- Noah Camden Creel, I'm so excited I can not wait!!!! Second the diagnosis of the omphalacele was not correct. They have diagnosed it as a gastoscesis. This means there is an opening that did not close around the first few weeks of life and some of his small intestines are protruding out through this hole. they said it was the size of a silver dollar. There is a small chance that more will come out and there is a chance that some could go back in. It is not associated with chromosomal abnormalities and was completely random. He will be going to Childrens to have surgery after he is born but is expected to make a complete recovery and do great. So please still keep him in your prayers, we want God to heal him and have faith that things will be OK. Just keep praying.

Hebrews 4:16
Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
