I know the power of the prayers of the amazing women on this forum are powerful, so please pray for me.
I had severe cramping and passed out this morning and and went to the OB. She told me I likely had an ectopic pregnany that was bleeding into my abdomen(I am 5.5 weeks long) and had to have emergency and surgery. I was so sad to be losing the baby we had tried so long for. I prayed the rosary to St. Gianna and Our Lady of Fatima for a miracle and that maybe my baby would survive. They taped my rosary with Lourdes water onto my gown. In surgery they found not an ectopic pregnancy but a ruptured ovarian cyst that had bled into my abdomen. There was no embryo tissue in the removed blood. Also a small sac was seen on ulatrsound in my uterus so they think the baby is where it should be in the uterus. It is too early to tell but the baby seems to be ok. We just have to wait and pray the baby is alive and healthy and that I do not miscarry.
So far I believe I was given a miracle by Our Lady of Fatima and St. Gianna's intercession. Please continue to pray for me.
I am doing better now and my pain is being managed. You must think I am crazy for being on the computer but it relaxes me.
On another note, I live in the same city as Elizabeth Dehority and I assume we are probably both at the same major hospital in our city. I would love to send her flowers if anyone wants to PM me her information. Maybe I could share my rosary that has already blessed me so much with another chance at life for my baby.
Thank you.

Oh, Robina! What a frightening and heart-wrenching day you've had! I will pray for you and your little one!
And, what a generous heart you have to be thinking of Elizabeth in her time of need! God bless you!
