I Am on my way to Mass asking God for a miracle to repair Matthew's heart valve. My Dr called and asked for us to take a blood test today. ( Alpha-feta protein) . I have denied this test with every pregnancy, but b/c I didn't want to consent to the Amnio, I said I didn't mind doing the blood test since it would not interfere with the baby. I am praying for accurate results vs "false positive" and then my Level II U?S is this Friday at 8 AM. The Dr said the baby's heart is best to look at the chambers after 20 weeks. ( My last Level II was at 17 weeks.) After this Friday U/S, we will ( should ) have a better picture of sending us to San Antonio for a cardiologist opinion. I am still hopeful, feel great and feel little kicks now and then. I will let you know what my tests   reveal and how Friday goes. hopefully well... Today's feast is St Monica and I have always  been filled with  HOPE. St Monica, pray for Matthew's heart.

For Mother with Child
 O almighty and Everlasting God Who through the operation of the Holy Christ, didst prepare the body and soul of the glorious Virgin Mary to be a worthy dwelling place of Thy divine Son; and, through the operation of the same Holy Ghost, didst sanctify Saint John the Baptist, while still in his mother’s womb; hearken to the prayers of Thy humble servant who implore thee, through the intercession of Saint Gerard, to protect her (me); that it may be cleansed by the saving water of baptism and, after a Christian life on earth, it may with its mother, attain everlasting bliss in Heaven. Amen.
 
 Praying for you and baby Matthew.
