Astounded by Miracles

I just want to comment on what this one family is going through in my Church. It is so amazing. The young mother has cystic Fibrosis (CF). She was on the transplant list for a new set of lungs when they found out they were pregnant. The doctors told her that the outcome was not good and that this was one of those times when abortion was okay. Now I am a person who believes it is the mothers right to reject the gift of God, not that I could ever go through an abortion myself. But that option should be open. Well anyway they told her it was okay because if she didn't the odds were not good that she or the baby would ever live. That was in October. They have been fighting for life ever since. Just a couple of days ago on April 2nd which is her husband's Birthday she got her new set of lungs. The baby was born 15+ weeks early in January and is doing good at 2 pounds 8 oz. To read about this miracle for yourself you really need to check out this website

It is the most amazing story ever. Within 12 hours of her surgery she was breathing room air without an oxygen tank and walking around. There is still a long way to go but with a little faith comes big miracles.
