I am a regular lurker on these forums, but don't have much time to post, but I often pray for the requests here.
Today I got a phone call from the twins (13 weeks old)doctor that their tyrosine levels from the metabolic screen are elevated and he wants us to go back and get more blood work done again (for the second time)
They were elevated the first time with the heel prick, and just last week they were apparently still elevated so he is referring us to a pediatrition and sending us for more bloodwork asap.
after a brieft uninformed google on the subject i'm a little afraid for their health, and don't know what lies ahead so I would appreciate prayers for their health and peace for me.
With five kids under 7 I'm barely functioning through the days as it is.
thank you!

Melanie,
I'm praying for the babies! Your blog name just popped out at me just a couple of minutes ago. My friend Julie says that when someone's name pops into your head, it means they need a prayer. She must be right!
Please keep us posted!

I am praying for them, Melanie. Internet health searches are so terrifying.
And, wow, Anne, I am so impressed with that perfect image of Our Lady. Thank you for posting it.

Melanie, I had found it initially doing an image, internet search and then when I tried to go back and find the site I took it from, I couldn't. Jenn L kindly tracked this site down that has the picture and others from the same author - William Bouguereau. This is the site.
It is such a rare, beautiful picture...
