I went in for a regular OB appointment this morning and they could not find a heartbeat. I saw a perinatologist there who did an ultrasound and confirmed that my baby has died. He believes that the baby died because of a one-time chromosomal abnormality that lead to heart failure. He said they will do an autopsy after the delivery. I am/was 22 weeks pregnant. Tomorrow I will go to L&D to be induced and deliver vaginally. The doctor said our baby is a girl. We want to name her Mary Grace. My almost five year-old is heartbroken. Please pray for us. We are living overseas and far away from family. This hasn't really sunk in for me yet but I know I will need prayers for tomorrow and in the days ahead. My children are four and two years-old.
Thank you.

Oh, Jordan, I am so sorry. This is devastating.
I pray the Holy Spirit will comfort and console you. Lean on us, we'll walk through this with you.

Dear Jordan,
I am so sorry. I am holding you and your dear ones close in prayer. We have a Mary Grace, too, and I will ask her to pray especially to your little saint in heaven, to help you in the days ahead...This is a very heavy cross.
