Chemai, Scott, and family,
We never stop praying for the general intentions of our friends on this board. But when there are special intentions, we step up the prayers and you get the spotlight.
Scott, I was tearing up when I read your post. Such trust in Our Lord's will is incredibly rare. Since you are so lifted in prayer by so many people, I have great faith that Augustine will arrive a perfect little bundle when the time is right. I will definitely pray that your Catholic doctor will be on call (can't you request him even if he's not?) and that the birth process goes smoothly. And we'll forward this prayer intention to our priest.
Anne, you are such a blessing in person and on this board!
Sending lots of supportive hugs your way. Wish I could be there to help.

Chemai, we are all praying for you!!
I am especially invoking the intercession of St Gianna: my daughter was not supposed to make it in utero past 28-30 weeks or so, and after being blessed with her 1st class relics things took a miraculous turn for the better. (even the non believer MD says that our Maria Gianna is his first real "miracle baby" in over 25 years practice!)
our Paul Augustine is especially praying!

Chemai,
Prayers from NC. I have just called my 6yo daughter over to say a prayer. We just said a Hail Holy Queen and an Our Father.
My daughter want's you to know:
"God loves you and will keep you safe. Augustine will be fine because God loves him too."
I will let my husband know tonight so we can pray as a family for your family.
I'm wrapping my arms around you!

Chemai
Know that we are all continuing to storm heaven for you in this pocket of Australia. You were missed at camp and Lynn and I asked all the families to pray for you, Augustine and family.
Scott has an amazing trust in God and it was incredible to hear him explain it all with such calmness and acceptance.
Your children had a lovely time, they are a true credit to you and Scott, they do shine out
Many, many hugs to you

God bless you all! Chemai had gotten worse after I had talked to her and yet through the night everything abated and she went on to have a very good day.
I have read the postings since yesterday, to her over the phone and Chemai is so very grateful, once again.
Thank you!

Thank you Jesus!!!
The children and I have been offering our masses for you and Augustine, and will continue to do so.
What a powerful witness you are giving Chemai and Scott.

It is such a joy and privilege to be praying for you, Chemai and Scott. We can't wait to meet little Augustine, but not yet .
May The Lord and His Mother continue to hold you in their steady hands.

Chemai,
I am just now getting back on my feet, and getting back on the boards after a rough ride for our pregnancy. I was anxious to read how you and others were doing, as I have been praying for you while I was away.
I am storming heaven on your behalf now, and begging our Lord for mercy for little Augustine as you and he stand at the foot of the Cross safely wrapped in our Mother's arms. Prayers for your entire family as this is no doubt taking its toll on everyone. I'll be offering my intentions tomorrow at Mass for you and Augustine, and also for your request that God will direct your doctor for delivery.
God's peace be yours!

Lovely news from Chemai today! Yesterday she was given another ultrasound (the last one before being two weeks ago) and this time, nothing has changed! All previous scans, usually a week apart had shown half loss again in cervix measurements. So this 'status quo' is just astounding news!
Also prayers needed that no colds are caught as there are people in RMcD House at present with very severe coughs. Any sort of virus etc are things to be avoided in such a delicate situation considering Chemai had bent down to pick something up last week and had worrying symptoms for a while after it.

Lisa, I wanted to tell you that a dear mutual friend of Chemai and myself has just sent her a holy card of St Gianna that has been touched to a first class relic - as soon as she told me she was sending it, I thought of you and your encouraging story!
