Prayers Needed!

I have very much been a blogging slacker since taking on a huge freelance project that involved writing 25 scripts just over a month ago, but this morning I am compelled to take the time to post this prayer request for Megan Bell and her family.  Megan is a friend's daughter-in-law who was joyously expecting her first children (twins) in a few months. 

Last week, she went into premature labor was hospitalized so that doctors could try to keep the babies in utero until 28 weeks (two more weeks I think) but yesterday they had to perform an emergency C-section.  The babies, Evie and Holden, each weigh less than 2 pounds and are in the NICU--so they surely need prayer. 

Even more urgent though, Megan was deprived of oxygen during the delivery and is unresponsive.  Kreig, Megan's husband has been by her side during the entire ordeal and now faces the heart-wrenching dilemma of leaving his children at one hospital to accompany his critically ill wife to another.

Kreig and Megan are devoted followers of Jesus Christ and have many friends who are praying fervently for them. Will you join the prayer army by asking that God do the miraculous on Megan's behalf?  Doctors have told the family that she will need to FIGHT to stay with us.  Please pray that she'll have the strength to do that, and that The Father will lovingly, restoratively touch her body and the bodies of her little babies.  Also, please pray for Kreig and the rest of the family who are all struggling to make sense of this sudden, unexpected trial, but are holding on to their faith and hope with tenacity.  I so appreciate that I can make this ask of just about everyone I know who reads my blog.  Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Love,
Sandy
