My sister is 18 weeks pregnant. It feels like she's 18 years pregnant due to all of the complications in making little Alex. She has a shortened cervix (I must admit that all of this medical speak means nothing to me. Nothing. I'm just repeating what I've been told.) that may require surgery to close. She has 2 placentas which is very abnormal. She has to go see a high-risk doctor once a week until little Alex decides to check out of the "womb hotel." I have taken to calling it her "womb hotel" to try to convince her that he'd be crazy to check out early. :) Anyway, she's pretty down on herself right now. She thinks she is already a bad mom because she's not protecting him. I assured her as the logical sister (perhaps she's in trouble if I'm to logical one?!) that that simply is not true. I told her to blame our Mom for making her with a funny cervix! ;) (Just kidding, Deb.)
All of this to say, please keep Kylie, Nick (poor kid, he must feel so helpless) and Alex in your prayers. And as you parents give thanks this Thanksgiving, please remember how blessed you are to have a child. I will be thankful, as someone's child, that I'm here and healthy!
