Remember that when you can't the words to pray we lean on eachother prayers to be those words. Just sit in the silence and enjoy all those prayers going up to heaven in your name.

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.
