Baby Boys, Oh My!

It's been a roller-coaster of emotions today.

Blakely's baby was delivered at 29 weeks, one day gestation today. Her cervical cancer, discovered during her pregnancy and sudden pre-eclampsia necessitated an emergency c-section early this morning, performed by the amazing Dr. Murphy. Baby Aaron was flown to OHSU in Portland, where he is being treated by their amazing team up there. No bad news has been reported, so our thoughts and prayers are with them all tonight.

Less than twelve hours later, Sarah and Carey received word that they are the final choice for a mother in Ohio to receive her infant son due December 23. This baby's Grandma spoke with Sarah and Carey over the phone at length tonight, and ended the conversation with very encouraging statements. Of course, we're cautiously optimistic, but we're very hopeful that Sarah and Carey's greatest wish will be fulfilled before the end of the year.
