Just starting a separate thread asking for prayers for Chemai's recovery. Augustine is doing wonderfully. 
Chemai has had quite a few problems to deal with since the ceasar, the biggest being, she is on blood pressure drugs to control her blood pressure (hypertension). The doctors have run blood tests and they are not looking very good, her liver results were poor and possibly the effects of so many drugs over the last 4 months.
Chemai is just keen to get home tomorrow (Sunday) but they won't release her unless things have stabilized. She is asking for prayers that the problems can be quickly overcome and she can get home to her family and rest and recover in her own home.
If they are able to check out tomorrow I hope to see Chemai and Augustine at Ronald McDonald House and have a cuddle with this dear fellow and take some photos!
God Bless and many thanks, Anne

Still praying...it's no fun to sit in hospital, where they wake you up every 2 hours around the clock, and they're never the same "every 2 hours" that your baby wants to nurse.

Chemai's recovery is slow with the continuing complication of pre-eclampsia, she hopes to get back online soon - I believe they are hoping to get a lovely family shot of everyone and get it on the forum, but to see a picture of little Augustine, you can go to my blog and there he is!

Unfortunately there are no words to express my deepest gratitude for all the prayers that have come from this forum. Each person’s prayers, sacrifices and petitions for us have been felt in a profound way by our family. The Lord and his Mother were definitely listening and we now have a beautiful baby boy that is truly a gift from heaven. I in turn ask God to bless and touch each one of you in a very special way.
Anne has especially been a wonderful support and the truest of friends. She has been the instigator of so many prayers for Augustine. We asked her and Phil (her lovely husband and a great friend) to be his Godparents. I asked Anne this on her birthday the feast of St Gerard Majella which I thought was very fitting (with St Gerard being a wonderful intercessor throughout our life) We have given Augustine the middle name Gerard.
Augustine was baptised by the most Rev. Bishop Geoffrey Jarrett at St Carthages Cathedral in Lismore on Christmas morning. It was private and very moving. Augustine gave his first and unmistakable smile the exact moment the words of Baptism were pronounced and a second one at the annointing - without waking. The Baptism on Christmas day was a huge blessing and quite a surprise as we were not expecting a Baptism for a couple of weeks.
Augustine is doing very well and is the calmest of babies. I will ask Scott to post up a pic of the whole family – together again after four long months. Thank you all again and be assured of our prayers for all of your intentions. God Bless. Chemai.
May Mary The Mother of God keep you all close to her loving heart.
