My friend delivered twin boys by C-section last night. She was 'almost' 30 weeks along. One is 3 lbs and breathing on his own. The other is 2-3/4 lbs and on a ventilator. I'm sure your prayers earlier helped them get this far...thank you and please pray for their continued healthy development and a quick recovery for my friend who is so tired of being in bed...

Both were baptized; the bigger boy continues to do well (mom has been able to hold him) but the smaller one is struggling. He's had a blood transfusion and ultrasound scheduled for today.

11/13/09: Both babies are home! Baby A came home Monday and they were able to take baby B home last night. Thanks for all your prayers for this family!

Praying for the twins and their parents. I had 31 week twins and similar scenario. I have a lovely picture of Madonna with twin babies I could send you (if you pm me your email) - your friend may like it.

Prayers for the twins!! I can imagine how torn their hearts are...rejoicing that the babies are here, but praying because both their little ones are so fragile. May Our Lady walk this road with them! I'll be praying!

Continuing to pray for them both, especially the smaller twin. Praying for the parents as they navigate this tremendously emotional roller coaster.
